Maksimilian
m(a)-ksimi-lian,
mak-si-milian
Origin:Russian
Meaning:The greatest
You've just discovered a moniker that will outrank all others you've seen, the masculine name Maksimilian. As the Russian form of Maximilian, Maksimilian stems from the Roman title Maximilianus. Deriving from the Latin word maximus, Maksimilian means "the greatest," placing your little one in prime position to succeed from the beginning. Though the first Maximilians were saints and Holy Roman emperors, your Maksimilian will create their own definition of triumph. Perhaps they'll be the kindest and most loyal friend to those lucky enough to know them, or maybe they'll be the best cuddle-giver you've ever encountered!
