I’ve never heard of [name_m]Maxen[/name_m]. Did you make it up? Unless it’s a family name, I much prefer classic, simple, sweet [name_u]Max[/name_u].

Congrats on your bundle!

[name_m]Maxen[/name_m] because you can shorten it to [name_u]Max[/name_u]…and because he’d have a “full” name.

I like the history of [name_m]Maxen[/name_m], but I just love [name_u]Max[/name_u], so that’s what I voted for.

However, if you like both names, I agree with the previous poster that you could name him [name_m]Maxen[/name_m] and call him [name_u]Max[/name_u].

I voted for [name_u]Max[/name_u].

Actually, we saw the name on Nameberry. It’s a variation of [name_m]Maximus[/name_m] I think. Thanks for your wishes :slight_smile:

I would go with the straightforward [name_u]Max[/name_u]. Both are great, though

I prefer [name_u]Max[/name_u].

[name_u]Max[/name_u] all the way!

I prefer [name_u]Max[/name_u] over [name_m]Maxen[/name_m]. But I’d choose [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] over [name_u]Max[/name_u].

You’re right. It’s a Welsh version of [name_m]Maximus[/name_m].

I prefer [name_m]Maxen[/name_m] with [name_u]Max[/name_u] as a nn! Best of both worlds!

[name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_u]Max[/name_u]! But either would work if his nn is gonna be [name_u]Max[/name_u]! Good luck!

Thanks everyone for your feedback. We are still undecided but will hopefully figure this out soon!

Definitely prefer [name_m]Maxen[/name_m].

[name_f]Adore[/name_f] [name_m]Maxen[/name_m]!

[name_m]Maxen[/name_m] is a lovely name (although I prefer the spelling [name_m]Maxon[/name_m]) which can always be shortened to [name_u]Max[/name_u] if you really want that name, personally (if it were my name), I would prefer having a longer name that can be shortened because I just think it looks nicer on paper and allows the chance that the child doesn’t HAVE to go by the short nn

I don’t see any point in lengthening it. [name_u]Max[/name_u] is a perfectly ‘full’ name, even if it is only three letters and one syllable.

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_m]Maxen[/name_m]!! [name_u]Max[/name_u] is also a great name.
