Name Opinion-Please be honest!

We are having a boy and I found a name that I love, but haven't been able to "sell" MH on it just yet.  He likes it, but he thinks it sounds too much like a last name (although I don't think I have ever known a person with this as their last name).  

Maddox

We want to run it by people to see what they think, but the problem is that we aren't telling anyone our name until he is born.  So I said I would come ask the ladies here, since you all will keep our secret! :)  We want something a little different and not too common. What do you think?      

Re: Name Opinion-Please be honest!

  • I dont hate it.  It's NMS.  Also I immediately think of angelina and brad.

  • I actually really like it. I have a friend with a little boy named Maddox.
  • I really like it. MY dh wouldn't go for it either though. I also think about brad and Angelina. I like mason too but think of the kardashians

  • I like it. Funnily enough Angelina and Brad don't come to mind first. I think of Greg Maddux who was one of the best pitchers of all time. Perhaps that's what your husband is thinking of.

  • I know 2 boys in my area with that name.  I think it's a fine name, I just probably wouldn't choose it (for my child) b/c I already know 2.
  • Seems perfectly fine to me!

  • I like it a lot, but it is definitely increasing in popularity.  I know 2 Maddox's recently born.

    I like the name Maddox. It is a guilty pleasure of mine. My mind does go to Brad and Angelina.

    Here is a list of other names that have X's in them, if that is one of the reasons you like Maddox: <A href="https://nameberry.com/list/397/X-Factor-

  • It's not a name I would use ( I really prefer family names), but I do like it and think it's cute.  If you like it, I say go for it!  Like so many PPs have said, it does make me think of Brad and Angelina, but who cares really.  Any name yo

  • That's my nephews name.  I helped come up with it!  We usually call him Max.
  • I love Maddox!

    That was going to be our baby boy name IF we were having a boy. However, we are having a girl :)

  • I know a baby Maddox.  It's NMS but I certainly don't hate it.  It's unique (as unique as you can be when a celebrity has a child with the same name) without being too out there.

  • It's NMS at all but not awful I suppose. It sounds a bit trendy to me, though I don't know anyone with the name.
