Max

I really like the name Max but wondered if it’s slightly odd that you’d see it everywhere as a word -Pepsi Max, max strength, max speed, min and max etc etc. Feel free to tell me I’m overthinking! Does anyone else have this association?

Always liked it. Ds2 wishes we'd called him Maximilian or Maximus though, but I'm ok with it.

I know of quite a few maxs ranging from babies to 30s. They all have a long name though

I love Max. It was on our list for DS.

Never thought of the Pepsi-max thing, although a few people did say it's a dog's name 🙄 (aren't they all).

I love the name 😊

ClaraThePigeon · 26/02/2023 20:21

I don't think it's really an issue.

Max is a good name but I would definitely have it as a shortening of a longer name. Maxwell or Maximus not Maximillian.

Nope. I like it. Short and cool 👍
