That??™s Maxx With Two X??™s, Thank You

posted in Celebrity babies |

Olympic champion skater Scott Hamilton, and his wife, Tracie Hamilton, welcomed their second child, a son, on January 21 in Tennessee. They chose the name Maxx — that’s with the letter ‘x’ twice, not a typo.

Well, it’s different all right. For some reason, it reminds me of the movie Mad Max, even though there was only one ‘x’ in that title. I guess that’s because seeing the name Max spelled Maxx has me groping for cultural references to place it somewhere. Whatever. Maxx it is.

Digg!
