I think Maxine is really cute, but with McKenzie as a middle name it sounds like a first and last name to me rather than a given name. Also not too big on alliteration.

I like Maxine, but paired with McKenzie it sounds like a stereotypical Disney Channel bully. Not that I like McKenzie separately and that spelling only makes it worse.

I don't think they sound mismatched per say, but together they sound a bit... overly trendy? The first syllables in both names are a bit repetitive. I do like Mackenzie and Maxine separately.

Maxine is charming and full of character; McKenzie is a dull, tacky dud.

I like Maxine, but pairing it with McKenzie is weird. It's almost rhymey.

I don't think this combination flows nicely at all; both of the names run together. However, I do like the name Maxine for girl.

I don't like either name, especially not Maxine. As a fn/ln combo it does sound good, kind of like a jazz singer's name.

But as a fn/mn combo, it's badly mismatched. Like a frumpy, bad-fitting fifties housedress paired with trendy Jimmy Choo stiletto heels.

Maxine sounds fresh these days, I approve.

McKenzie in any of its forms is a pet hate of mine.

I love Maxine. I've had two wonderful residents with the name, they fit the sassy vibe Maxinr gives off.

Maxine is so cute!

I love Maxine! It works well with McKenzie in terms of sound, but that spelling makes it look even more surnamey than usual. Maybe it is a family surname in this case!

Maxine is just OK; I prefer Max for a boy.

Is McKenzie the ln or a mn? Either way, the repetition of the mac- sound is jarring, but if McKenzie is the mn it won't matter much. If it's the surname it really is unfortunate.

Maxine is okay, but honestly, if I ever have to see another Mackenzie I may run screaming. So far past its sell by date it stinks.

Don't like either name especially together max Mack, more masculine names

I like Maxine.
