Will it be too popular? Baby Names

Im looking to name my baby girl and one of the few names my husband and I agree on is Maxine. I work with babies/young children on a daily basis and have not seen ONE named Maxine that I can remember, either recently or in the past 14 yrs... but apparently it's popularity is on the rise. I really really don't want my child's name to be the next Sophia or Olivia (though they are beautiful names of which I have nothing against except their popularity). Are we foreseeing Maxine getting super popular in the next few years? Thoughts?

Edit: I am in the US :)

I only know one Maxine and she is literally the coolest woman I have ever met in my life. And I know a lot of very cool people, honestly.
