I found out Friday that I am expecting a baby. We had been told in the past that I would never get pregnant. I have a beautiful son named Parker Jake, he is 5 years old. We were blessed with the adoption of Parker. His name was in honor of his birth family. I am due April 15th. I am really hoping for

I really like the name Maddox as well, but it will not go with our last name. I also like Gabriel which we can not use as well.

Congratulations! I like Maddox, but I think for a lot of people it would conjure up Maddox Jolie-Pitt...not an inherently bad thing, but definitely a little derivative. But there are lots of great names in a similar vein...

Lennox (love the nn of Knox...can never sell dh on it, though.)
Weston
Martyn (Welsh surname)
Matthis (like the old singer Johnny Matthis)
Deacon (Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Philippe used this for their son.)
Spaulding (Spaulding Grey wasn't the best role model, but it's a great name!)
Dex (I like simply Dex more than Dexter, but that's me.)
Baxter

I think Maddox is ok but I think EVERYONE will think you named him after Maddox Jolie-Pitt and I think there are alot of nice uncommon names out there that are better than Maddox.
