Max is also used as a feminine name, as a short form of Maxine, Maximiliana, etc. However, it's more common for males. So, I think that the "Gender" of this name should be updated from "Masculine" to "Masculine & Feminine". A known female fictional bearer of this name is Max Einstein, the protagonist of the Max Einstein series of books.Sources: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unisex_name
