My name is Makenzie and y'all do not need to say all the rude and ignorant things. It's useless, keep ur bad comments to yourself nobody wants to hear it. Parents can name their kids whatever they want, they don't care about ur comment.
You are all just haters! I love my name. My mother spelled it differently because her name is also uniquely spelled. I'm currently 22 years old and I can't wait to rock this name in my 40s.
Flimsy spelling of a very trendy name. Mackenzie and its plethora of kreatyve spellings are pretty common where I live, so it’s not exactly a "unique" name. I can't say this is the worst spelling I have encountered, but please pick something that isn't going to sound ridiculous on a grown woman.
This was my first dog's name. We called her "ma-kin-zee" though. When people started calling her "ma-ken-zee" we thought it was a little weird.

My name is Makenzie and I hear that name all the time. You say it is unique, well I live in South Carolina and I hear it all the time. You probably meant the spelling Makenzie, you are probably used to it being Mackenzie. My mom spelt in Makenzie because she did not want anyone calling me Mack.
Why is this 'name' so popular? If you think you're being unique by spelling it like this, you're not. This spelling is currently (barely) more popular than Mckenzie. This name won't die! I'm sick to death of this baby name and all its variants.

Oh, god. This is such a joke. I can't believe people actually name their kids this! What about it appeals to you?! It's not even spelled right, and it may seem like you're trying to be creative by changing the spelling, but really, it just looks so incredibly stupid. And, the REAL spelling of this name means "son of Kenneth"! I guess the type to name their daughters Makenzie would also think that Madison and Addison are perfectly acceptable as female names. One more thing... Imagine an eighty year old (or even forty year old) woman named "Makenzie"! Hilarious, I know. Unfortunately, it's not gonna be so funny for the poor bearer.

Horrible, horrible name. Truth, it doesn't have "Mc" or "Mac" anymore, but you know what else? This name, along with Makenzi, Mekensie, MiKenzy, and all those other horrid kri8tyve "spellings", has been butchered so much that it no longer has an actual MEANING. Makenzie doesn't mean anything. It's just a mutation of Mackenzie, another name that sucks, but at least has history. Parents, the world doesn't need names like this. Makenzie, Jayden, Nevaeh, Kayleigh, Aelieyah, Madisynne, yuck.
This is the spelling people with little imagination and innovation, not to mention taste, go for, when they'd like to use an overused name, but don't like the part of it that makes it masculine and surname-y. Well, it's just the tacky name MacKenzie misspelled, and the pronunciation hardly differs.

I'm not saying that I like the spelling of Mackenzie better this way but my name is spelt MACKENZIE and my nickname is still KENZIE. Just saying that KENZIE can be a nickname for both MACKENZIE and MAKENZIE.
I like the name Makenzie. If your name is Makenzie you don't have a bad nickname that's for sure. You have Kenzie and probably others but overall I don't think it's a bad name.
This is the name of my niece. My sister and her boyfriend decided that they prefer this spelling over "Mackenzie," since the latter spelling can be either masculine or feminine. Also, Makenzie is more readily shortened to the nickname "Kenzie."
