Maxwell????

My husband and I love the name Max but we have a one syllable surname and think Maxwell sounds better with our surname. I'm not keen on Maximus or Maximilian. What are your thoughts on Maxwell?

Other contenders are Leo and Jude (although one syllable, Jude works very well with surname) but I'm worried they're too popular.

Middle name would be Alexander.

Sebastian is a million times better.

Sebastian and Alexander are classic names.

My brother went to school with a Maxwell and he's over 70.

I like Maxwell but Maxwell Alexander is a bit of a mouthful.
