Maddox is a recurring name in "A Swiftly Tilting Planet" by Madeline L'Engle. It is associated with a family who can turn to good or to evil, and will take the world with them. Also a last name used as a title for a character in The English Patient which is where I first heard and loved the name!
Most new names created from surnames sound like they're ready to lounge around at prep school. This one's too busy skinning bears and catching bullets with its teeth. The name was nearly unheard of before actress Angelina Jolie chose it for her son, but hundreds of parents quickly jumped on the idea. Macho, yet surprisingly elegant.
