Maximillian and Scarlet

Hi ladies.

When my do and I first discussed having a baby we talked about names and came up with Maximillian for a boy or Scarlet for a girl.

I am now 9 weeks pregnant and still love those names, but should we consider any more?

We wanted something quite fiesty for a girl, definately not twee. And for a boy something strong that you could imagine a good bloke being called, if that makes sense.

We don't mind if a name is popular, but don't want a chavvy name or one the kid will have to spell out all the time.

Has anyone got any opinions on our chosen names or ideas on other names we should consider?

Thanks.

I like them both very much. I would probably just use Max myself as the full version is a mouthful.

I like Max but not Maximilian.

Sorry, I really don't like Scarlett.

I love Scarlett and if this baby (am 15 weeks) is a girl it will be a middle name as it's a bit too popular for my liking atm

Maximillian will be known as Max

Thanks for all your views so far, yep agree it would be Max day to day but would have full name on certificate.

Any ideas for similar named I might like?
