We have a short one syllable name and I love the nickname Max for a girl.

DH likes it but feels it might be a bit too harsh sounding and thinks Maxwell would be a better option to get Max but I'm not so keen on Maxwell.

What do you think of this name? We also haven't settled on any middle names so that isn't a problem (yet!)

Maxima is also a feminine name of Latin origin, we don't really like Maxine. I feel it sounds slightly dated

I love it! The Queen of the Netherlands is called Máxima, she's Argentinian and seems a real character (in a fun, friendly kind of a way).

Isn't it Maxine for the feminine version?

I don't like Maxima sorry
