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?

Personally I like the longer version. Like when your kid isn't listening to you...

Mom : "Max ?"
Max : ...
Mom : "Max !"
Max : ...
Mom : "MAXIMILIAN !"

Nice to have that option to catch his attention 😁

I also really like Felix. In fact I like all -x names and most -s names (Jonas, Lucas, Matthias, Marcus, Magnus... Etc)

Just read the OP to my teen (not called Max) and he was really confused and laughed. He said no one associates Max (common name for his age group) with max & min, Pepsi max etc. 😂

Haha! Thanks :). Does he think of it as a macho name or just normal?!

I think Max is a very kind name to give your son as nobody would mind being a Max themselves would they? It's short, simple, cool. You just can't really go wrong with Max.

You are over thinking.
