maksin

Maksin is a surname of Slavic origin and, less commonly, a given name. It is derived from the masculine given name Maksim (the Slavic form of Maxim), and through patronymic or diminutive formation it can indicate "son of Maksim" or "descendant of Maksim." In languages using the Cyrillic alphabet, the standard masculine form is Maksin and the feminine form is Maksina. When transliterated into Latin script, the spelling Maksin is common, though variations may occur in different languages.

Maksin is relatively uncommon and is most often found among Russian-speaking populations and in other post-Soviet states. It is also present among diaspora communities in Europe and North America. The distribution is not uniform and tends to reflect migration and local naming practices.

Notable people with the surname Maksin are not widely documented in major reference sources. As with many surnames derived from given names, individuals bearing Maksin may be involved in diverse professions and regions without widely recognized global notability.

Related names include Maksim (from which Maksin is derived), Maksina (feminine form), and transliteration variants that may appear as Maksin in different language contexts.
