Maxton Origin and Meaning

The name Maxton is a boy's name of Latin origin meaning "Maccas's homestead; greatest town".

Maxton is a new member of the ever-expanding Max clan of baby names, hitting the US Top 1000 for the first time in 2011. It joined newfangled Maxon and stylish cousin Paxton, though it did drop out of the charts in 2023.

While the classic Maxwell, Maximus, Maxim, Maximillian, or just plain Max have shown more staying power than Maxton, it does tick the box as a surname-inspired invention that sounds new but not too obviously so.
