Please help!

We have a Maximilian, known as Max. Baby no2 is a girl due very soon and we just can't decide on a name. Our current list, in no particular order, looks like this:

Roxanne
Iris
Beatrix
Margot
Phoebe

Which would you pick?
Any other suggestions/opinions/help will be very welcome!

The only one I'm not keen on is Roxanne. The others are lovely. Iris or Margot would be my top pick.

Wallabyone · 03/02/2023 20:38

My favourites are Iris and Margot.

I wouldn't go for either of the X names because the sound is similar to Max. And you could end up with Max and Rox.

Max & Phoebe out of your list.

I also like;

Max and Lily
Max and Millie
Max and Isabella
