He’ll go by Max until he gets older and can decide for himself whether he wants to use the longer name.

People don’t want their child to have a popular name so they just make one up!! Now those names sound stupid!

I have a Max (born 2006). I know of two other Max, both of who we met after we named our son. The first is a 40 year old and the second is a 6 year old. If you want popular go for Jack…..

Why are people so quick to criticise other people’s name choices? Must have nothing better to do with their time. Why else would you be commenting on a forum about a kids name….;-)

Too popular to use? Really? So Michael, Michelle, Cathy, Jackie, Steve, etc are unique I guess right? I’m proud to be named Max because I was named after my father, who was named after the doc who delivered him. Dr. Max Gould. My dad was born in 1931 and the doc was an older gent, so that gives one an idea how far back Max was being used. Out of all the people named Max that I’ve met, all have been energetic, and rambunctious, as well as mischievous. The name always seems to fit the personality of a child, and yes, as well as a pet!!! I’ve gone by Maxx, Maxie, Maxee, Maxe, Maxey. And if you haven’t paid attention…most products out on the shelves is labeled “something- MAX” or “Max- something” My son Corey actually asks, STILL why I didn’t name him after me. Max is an awesome name, think about it some more before throwing it out!!!

It is nw growing on my husband because the more we say it the better it sounds. It just sounds like a cool name. I do not know anyone named Max but I know that it is becoming a popular celebrity name. Not only does it sound cool but it sounds like a strong name.

I have no idea, that this name now is so popular. We chose it 5 years ago, when we were just married. I love this name, it is perfectly fit our little half russian boy.

Just plain Max. As far as common names go, I don’t find it that common. These days you hear a ton of Connors, Jacks, Jakes, Ethans. And of course, who doesn’t know a million Michaels, Brians, Johns. Max is a great, simple, strong, masculine name. It may be on the trendier side now, but it has great history as well.

I think it’s really cute for a boy but I don’t like it as a girl’s name. Also, i like Max, but not Maxwell or Maximus so if I were to use it then it would just be Max.

We call him both Maksim and Maks, but find that mostly it’s Maksim. We always liked Max and almost named our first born that and at the last minute he became Mason because everyone we told the name to would comment about a dog they knew or had named Max. When we were expecting our second son, we just couldn’t find another name we liked better and I found Maksim in the baby book and also from Dancing With the Stars. The family had a hard time at first getting used to it since we kept it a surprise until birth, mainly because we didn’t want unsolicited comments about the name. Now, of course we can’t imagine him being called anything else. It suits him perfectly!
