Knowing that James Clark is an extremely common name, I don’t know why I would be suprised to find another James Clark that went by his middle name, or even for that matter shortened it to Max.
I was named after James Clerk Maxwell.

> One of Maxwell’s most important achievements was his extension and mathematical formulation of Michael Faraday’s theories of electricity and magnetic lines of force. His paper On Faraday’s lines of force was read to the Cambridge Philosophical Society in two parts, 1855 and 1856. Maxwell showed that a few relatively simple mathematical equations could express the behaviour of electric and magnetic fields and their interrelation.
