people should have more respect for the names parents pick

I hate it that people ask what are we naming our son and when we share they make fun of it like idiots. I picked a name and my husband picked the middle name , he picked Maximus which he loves and thinks its it's a strong name. I didn't warm up to  the name at first but I had to respect his choice . well today my brother asked what we were naming our baby and when I said Maximus he laughed and said "oh like gluteus maximus lol" and we both just said "yeah sure like that" smh. Does anyone else get this also? Is there something wrong with that name for reals?

I love the name max. My husband and I are refusing to tell anyone our name because of that reason of people judging and putting thier opinions out there. It already happened with girl names that I chose, luckily we are having a boy and won't tell anyone until he's here and named.
