    It's pretty horrific and sounds made up. I would assume the parents were teens or otherwise pretty uneducated.

    I don't believe teenagers or uneducated people write baby name books.

    I'd pronounce max-on and then I'd giggle a little. It's pretty bad, honestly.

    Well, thanks for the opinions! I wasn't sure how people would say it. Therefore I asked. I read it Maxuhn.. Kind of like how Oregonians say Oregun and not Oregone.

    It's not that I am set on using Max as a nickname and need a form of Maximilian.. It was a pronunciation question. I don't like Maxwell. I don't even know if I want an M name. I have others.

    One of my moms friends has a little boy names this. His older brother is Mason. She's also a teacher so I don't know what she was thinking. I don't like it.

    I can't help but think it's a combination of maxi pad and tampon. Sorry!

    As an Oregonian, that pronunciation is right.. However MAXON is terrible, sorry.

    *snort*  This made my morning.

     

    OP, It's awful.  Step back from the made-up trendy looking name and think about your child as a 50 year old man.  THEN give him a good, strong, respectable name.

    I keep wanting to say Tampax... It sounds like a brand of feminine protection.

    I actually know a Maxon, and he IS the son of a teen mom.  We pronounce it MAX-un.  Aside from it definitely sounding "teen mom", it's also an ugly sounding name as other pps have said.

    Behind the name doesn't consider it a name. It's not a form of Maximillian

    I would pronounce it as Max-uhn.

    I don't like it though. I think you could do better.

     

    Also...I have read some terrible baby name books so I wouldn't be surprised if uneducated people wrote them. It doesn't take much to get a book printed these days.

    I would say it this way also, as I clawed my eyes out.

    Glad you're not set on using it as a nn.

    Max or Maxim are both nice.

    I went with Maxwell. Not my fave, but it's a good Scottish name and a nice one if he ever decides to do something ultra professional like law. Others I liked were Maxfield. (After Maxfield Parrish.) However, Maxim is a girly magazine. Maxton is okay, but a trendy make-up. Maxamillian (sp?) is a mouthful, but not bad.

    Or, you can just use Max.

    I actually really like this name, but spelled Macson. We have friends with a little boy with this name and they call him Mac for short. I think it's cute.
