Best Answer

Madison is an English surname (family name) meaning "son of Maud" or "son of Matilda". It was not much used as a first name until after the 1984 movie "Splash" (and even then it was mainly used in the USA), so in that sense it has practically no history as a first name.

Using surnames as Christian names is a very modern idea.
