Yes! That was the first encounter I had with the name Major. Brings a different level of “cool.”
Azi*Cwater Says:
Awkward when meeting a Magnus or a Maximus/Max. Magnus means great, Major means greater and Maximus means greatest.

iZombie, anyone? I love the character, but not sure I'd use this as a baby name. Some titles have to be earned!
Zelliew Says:
it could cause confusion if it's taken as a title or rank

For me, Major will always be my grandparents' Scotch collie that I adored.
Guest Says:
Well it could be seen as respectable or honorable depending on how one chooses to see it but for myself I don't really like titles as names. I don't hate the name though.

Not everyone has to like the name and say wonderful comments on it just because it's your sons name. Everyone has a different opinion and if that's your attitude then you shouldnt say anything negative towards a name in case it's someone's name.

How is that even an offensive comment jfc it's just a persons thought.

I LOVE the name Major. It is my grandpa's first name and he's great!! Dh will not go for this name even though I have begged!!! :(
Guest Says:
I've met an adult Major and I've only heard it on Major Harris, TI's son and Major Garrett the journalist. I personally think the name is a bit tacky but I don't hate it like other noun-names like Maverick.

I just met a little boy named Major! He was adorable, but I'm not too sure if the name fit him.

I knew a couple of pooches called Major!
DearestJules Says:
Whoa, I had no idea Major was in the Top 500! I've been on Nameberry for maybe a year now and have never encountered it before, nor have I ever met anybody in real like with this name before either.
lesliemarion Says:
I like it, but it does sound like a big dog with a deep bark,
hamwan Says:
Like the name Captain, Major sounds funny as a name.
While it would be very interesting paired with a surname like "Strangefellow," it seems as thought there is just too much that can go majorly wrong when using it.
