Which longer version of Max

So I really like the name Max and it’s one of only a few that my husband and I agree on.

However my husband is insistent that he have a ‘full name’ on his birth certificate.

Which longer variation of Max do you prefer? Or do you think Max alone is fine.

Max is lovely on it's own.

Maximillian is okay.

Maxim is a porn magazine!!!

Maximilian is lovely.

Why can't Max be the full name?

AlwaysLatte · 04/08/2020 00:25

Max is a lovely name. It was on my list but when we sat down together to discuss names my husband said 'only if his full name will be Maximum Disruption' Grin

We have a Max and I think it works fine as a stand alone name. My Dad suggested Maxwell because he said it sounded like a prime minister 🙄, dh wanted Maximus for the Gladiator connection🙄 and my mum wanted Maximilian because she thought it sounded posh 🙄 He's just called Max...

At a push - Massimo or Magnus!

I'd probably go for Maxwell.

Maxwell is awful, just reminds me of the awful coffee brand. Maximillian is a mouthful. I'd personally go for just Max.

Love Max, but not keen on any of the longer names

I think Max is fine on its own. I like it, but I don't like any of the longer versions.

We were going to go for Maximilian. Think Max is totally good on it's own though!
