In the US, it's way more common as a masculine name. It became popular in the 2010s due to its similarity to other names like Max, Dax and Jax. Therefore, the gender of this name should probably be changed to "Feminine & Masculine" (Source: https://www.behindthename.com/top/beyond?name=Pax&gender=&type=sample)

Pax was also used as a masculine name in the Latin language and in the Roman Empire. Some evidence for this is that Pax was used as a name element in unisex and masculine Latin and Roman names, such as Pacificus. However, Pax is more common for females. So, I think that the "Gender" of this name should be changed from "Feminine" to "Feminine & Masculine".Sources: https://www.names.org/n/pax/about https://forebears.io/forenames/pax
Though the entry lists Pax as a feminine name, it is now used by males too, such as Pax Jolie-Pitt, the son of American actors Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
