Thinking about the name
Maxie
American origin
“A diminutive form of Max or Maxwell with American casual charm, popularized in early-to-mid 20th century usage. Maxie has a friendly, approachable quality that feels both vintage and timelessly wearable. The -ie ending gives it warmth while retaining the strength associated with the Max- root.”
