We love the name max, but are worried that it is going to become super popular due to celebrities christina aguleira and jennifer lopez. What do you think?

love it too....wish we could call this one Max...but we already have a Matthew..and he gets called Matt...matt and max...lol...i don"t think so

Cheers

I personally dont think it is going to become uber popular because of the celebrity usage, i could be wrong though

I say, if you love it, use it

my dad and brother are maxwell but get shortened to max, my son has the middle name of maxwell i like it, i think its a nice strong bold name for a boy

It's a lovely strong name, but IMO it's too late to credit its popularity to a celeb... it's been a huge crowd favourite here for yeeeears.

I beleive it's #26 on the top baby names. But i have seen alot around so i wouldn't. But if u love it go for it.

Max is cool. I always imagine Max's to be a little bit cheeky and living life to the fullest!!

I know hundreds of Max's - they're all dogs (literally). Unfortunately I always think of a labrador.

Sorry, but you did ask.

Its NMS.

I love it , my 3rd son is Maxamus who gets called Max . Hes a cheeky little so and so and always the life of the party.

DD would have been Max if she was a boy.

We did consider it for DS, but after looking into it, it was very popular, and yep... seen loads of dogs called Max too...

I don't mind it but it's my Mum's dogs name so, to me, it's always going to be a dogs name

I am loving Max at the moment

Max is a great strong name!

Max is a terrific name. I say use it

I love Max. Its the only boys name DH and I agree on too!

I really like the name Max but our neighbour's dog is Max, so for me its ruined as in my mind it will now always be a dog's name

As an alternative, how about Mack?

Max is a great name, and I wouldn't worry about the celeb factor either. We haven't seen that many Brooklyn, Shiloh, or Suri's ......yet. I think most people usually go for adult celebrity names - if they're into that sort of thing. As for dog names, well that wouldn't put me off at all. Just get a dog, call him Jack or Josh, take him to the park and call him on a loud voice. See all the little boys run!!!

I love it too!

Zac is another short but strong name that I like.

Good luck, if you like it, use it. My DD2 has 3 kids in her kindy class with the same name. It didn't seem that popular the year I had her, but I guess it was!

I love Max, as a boy's and an adult male name.

Thanks everyone!
