What is the meaning of the name Maximilianos ?

The baby name Maximilianos is a Male name , 7 syllables long and is pronounced Greek: /maksimiliˈanos/ — approx. 'mack-see-mee-lee-AH-nos'.

Maximilianos is Latin in Origin.

Maximilianos is the Hellenized form of the Latin cognomen Maximilianus, built on maximus "greatest" with the adjectival -ilianus, giving the sense "of the greatest" or "descendant of Maximus." In Greek it appears as Μαξιμιλιανός, paralleling the widespread European name Maximilian.

Attested in Late Antiquity among Western martyrs and bishops named Maximilianus and later elevated by Habsburg emperor Maximilian I, the name spread across Catholic and wider European circles. In Greek-speaking communities it is rare but familiar, buoyed in modern times by the cult of St. Maximilian Kolbe and by international naming trends. Variants include Maximilian (English/German), Maximiliano (Spanish/Portuguese), Massimiliano (Italian), Maksymilian (Polish), and Maksimilian (Slavic); feminine forms Maximiliana/Maximiliane. Diminutives and short forms include Max, Maxi, Makis, and the colloquial Greek Lianos; related cognates are Maximus/Maximos.
