Max, Zac or Fin names?

I see these names as very similar in many ways. They are also more or less exactly the same in terms of popularity when combined.

Max - Max/Maxwell/Maximilian/Maximus/Maxim

Zac - Zac/Zack/Zak/Zach/Zachary/Zachariah

Fin - Finn/Finlay/Finley/Finbar/Finian/Fintan

Which do you prefer? Max, Zac or Fin names?

fin names

I've got a Max and he's lovely!

hollyhobbie · 02/04/2008 14:04

Finn was my choice for DS

ImflightbutIcantlogintoday · 02/04/2008 14:05

Fin, know too many of the others!!

twirlymum · 02/04/2008 14:07

ds was going to be a Finlay, but when he was born he didn't look like one, so he is Max. Plus, you can really shout MAX!!!!!!! (he is a very cheeky boy - read 'sod')

Fin names, or Max names. Never been too keen on Zacs for some reason.

devonsmummy · 02/04/2008 14:43

Zac

ajandjjmum · 02/04/2008 14:49

Maybe all Maxs are twirly - but we wouldn't really swap them!

nickytwotimes · 02/04/2008 14:49

Finlay. It was my Dad's name.
Not really keen on Max or Zac names, tbh.
Don't really like abbreviations as given names either.
God, I'm a fussy bugger!

I would use Zachary with Zac for short. I like it and I don't know of one. I know a heap of Maxes and Finns.

Novicecamper · 02/04/2008 14:55

I like Finn. Not keen on any of the others.

twinkle5 · 02/04/2008 14:57

Zachary, shortened to Zac, I have one

GreatGooglyMoogly · 02/04/2008 14:58

Zac or Max (but with a longer version as given name)

Piffle · 02/04/2008 15:07

I have 2 boys
Max and Finn (Finbar)
Both exquistie boys

twirlymum · 03/04/2008 11:13

Remember though that due to the popularity of High School Musical, starring Zac Efron (I know, I'm old enough to be his mother but he does have lovely eyes) it will surely be more popular in the next few months/years.

Three of my top choices for boys names. I love them all
My DS is Zak (not short for anything, just Zak, so i guess that probably answers the original question

Martha200 · 08/04/2008 23:00

My Swedish friends have a Max and Zak, and love them both
