Baby Names

Which one?

We are having a baby boy and have it narrowed down to two names. Which one sounds/flows better?

Maxim Jamison

Henry Jamison 

Thanks!

    Maxim Jamison

    Henry Jamison 

    Thanks! 

    Love both but I would go with Maxim. It's less popular and flows better.

  • Unless you are giving birth to a magazine featuring identical-looking, half naked women, or you have another child named Hustler, I wouldn't name the kid Maxim.

    Henry, on the other hand, gets a million thumbs up. Love it.

  • I like Henry better because of the Maxim magazine connection that my brain inevitably makes. And Jamison always makes me think of whisky. So maybe you don't really want my opinion ;)

     

    I like Henry Jamison, though.

    That's my one issue with Maxim...I was thinking of spelling it the traditional Maksim. I'm Russian and I would love a Russian name. Darn you Maxim magazine!

    Maxim Jamison absolutely does not have the better flow. The names are too rhymey together. Not to mention Maxim is a dirty girly magazine. Maksim is a nice Russian name, but again, it sounds awful with Jamison.

    MAKSIM

    Gender: Masculine

    Usage: Russian, Macedonian

    Other Scripts: ?????? (Russian, Macedonian)

    Pronounced: mahk-SEEM (Russian)  [key]

    Russian and Macedonian form of MAXIMUS
     
    Henry Jamison has the best flow. Not rhymey. Sounds great. Not a slutty magazine. Big Smile

    This is would have been our pick if this baby was a boy. We were going with Maksim Alexander. So of your choices, I like Maxim, though I prefer the Russian spelling.

    Agreed, the magazine ruins the name for me...Henry is very nice though

  • I don't care about the magazine reference. And since you didn't ask if we like either of the names, I won't comment on my personal preference of either.

    I think Maxim Jamison does not flow together at all. It's awkward to say, imo. Just not a good combo.

    Henry Jamison has a really great flow.

  • Henry sounds more sophisticated. Maxim reminds me of the magazine.

  • Definitely Henry. Maxim makes me think of the swimsuit magazine. If you're set on Max, Maxwell is a better fn.
