How Maximus sounds
The three beats of Maximus give it a lyrical quality. The last sound of Maximus is a stream of air, so the name closes with a soft hiss. The sound of Maximus runs together without hard stops, a trait filed under water in the scheme used here. The popularity of Maximus in U.S. birth records has stayed even, so it will not date quickly. Maximus appears mainly as a boy's name in U.S. birth records.
The Saju view
The first sound of Maximus is made with the lips, and the sound-element system used here counts that as water. Maximus is a water name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack water. Because water feeds wood in the cycle of generation, Maximus can also help a chart that is short on wood, though less directly. If water is already strong in a chart, Maximus ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.
