Should we change our son’s name from Mazeen to Maseen?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
My son name is Mazeen. We only the parents are pronounce the name as it is. In practice others used to call as Maseen instead of Mazeen. I heard that name Maseen do not have good meaning and that name is also banned in some regions. Also the people telling the name, Mazeen, which we put had both good and unpleasant meaning. So we are in confusion. So please suggest me whether can we change the name or keep as it is? Also tell me whether is there any harm if it is pronounced as Maseen because the name plays a vital role in everyone life.
