Maximian Origin and Meaning

The name Maximian is a boy's name meaning "the greatest".

Borne by a Roman emperor, a Latin poet, and several bishops, Maximian is an English variation of Maximianus or Maximus. A bold and unexpected way to the popular Max or Mack, Maximian might appeal to those who like Octavian, Cassian, Dorian, and Damian.
