Max or Felix?

[sunshinefordays]

Which do you prefer of Max or Felix and why?

Any associations you have with either name?

Thanks!

[WhackingPhoenix]

Are you having a baby or a cat?

I do like Max, though.

[CheshireCats]

There are a lot of Max's aged around 15-18. Felix is more unusual. So I think I would go with Felix.

Maximus.
Max is a ddog's name .
Felix is a dcat.

Max

It’s a solid neutral name, like a less overused Jack. I do prefer it as a diminutive of Maximilian though

Felix isn’t awful awful but I don’t like it and it makes me think of cats

[Justhereforaibu1]

Depends on whether you're having a dog or a cat sorry

[RibNSaucyArseCrack]

Max! But I am biased 🙃

We we’re going to go with the full Maximilian but we thought that was a bit much.

what do we call him though? Maximilian 🤣

[Cotswoldmama]

Felix, I love names that could equally be pet names! I think Max is a bit popular as well and I prefer slightly less used names.

[StampOnTheGround]

Max! 😊

Max is a dog’s name, Felix is a cat’s name.

[pinklavenders]

Felix is a very well known brand of cat food 🐈 in the UK.

Maximilian nickname Max is better for a human.

[SmellsLikeMiddleAgeSpirit]

I like both names.
I prefer Felix - great name and meaning - but the cat food puts me off, so I'd have to go with Max.

[AnnaKorine]

I prefer max as short for maxwell

I like Max. Hate Maximilian but do like the French name Maxime.

I've met a couple of toddler Felixs recently. I think for their generation it will be a normal name, but for me it's 'cats like Felix like Felix'.

[JennyAct3]

Max. Felix makes me think of cat food and I know a 14 year old Felix and he’s not a nice kid (still just a kid so obviously time to change!).

[Fuckitydoodah]

Definitely Max

[ElenaSt]

Felix.

[Mumofgirls2017]

Felix

i like them but some will say dog/ cat names

[KangarooKenny]

Max. Felix will always be associated with a cat.

[DuchessOfSausage]

Max

[toastofthetown]

Much prefer Felix. Max is just bland.

[Dyra]

I love them both! I'm biased towards Max though since I have my own. He's just Max though. It's not short for anything.

[loulou2021]

Love Max

My eldest is called Felix and I still love it!
I literally don't know another felix his age either so still fairly uncommon!

[Wednesdayafternoon]

Also my eldest is Felix Andy youngest is Marley. Not a single person has every comment on Felix the car or Marley and me. Literally nobody!
