Well, Maddox is being commonly used as a boys' name in the USA today.

Fox has been used on rare occasions as a male name also, partly because of the character Fox Mulder on the TV show The X-Files.

Finally, the Scottish surname Knox has been used as a given name, originally in honor of John Knox, the leader of the Presbyterian Reformation in Scotland.
