A Sister for Alexis

General Name Discussion
1

A friend asked me for help with naming her second child, so I decided to post here to see if any of you fantastic namers had some suggestions!

She has a daughter named [name_u]Alexis[/name_u] who goes by [name_u]Lexi[/name_u] most of the time. She likes names that have nicknames, as in [name_u]Alexis[/name_u]/[name_u]Lexi[/name_u], and would like her second daughter to have a name with a useable nickname.

Some names she’s considered but isn’t sold on:

[name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] ([name_f]Cece[/name_f])
[name_u]Reese[/name_u]
[name_f]Chloe[/name_f]
[name_f]Phebe[/name_f]
[name_f]Libby[/name_f]

The baby’s middle name will be [name_f]Grace[/name_f], which is an honoring name. Their last name starts and ends with an N. Any help is appreciated - thanks! :slight_smile:

[name_u]Alexis[/name_u] is also a unisex name, so I would suggest another unisex name.
[name_u]Avery[/name_u],[name_u]Peyton[/name_u], [name_u]Skylar[/name_u] ([name_u]Sky[/name_u])
Nickname options

[name_f]Alina[/name_f] ([name_f]Lina[/name_f], [name_u]Allie[/name_u])
[name_f]Alana[/name_f] ([name_f]Lana[/name_f])
[name_u]Addison[/name_u] ([name_f]Addie[/name_f])
[name_f]Julianna[/name_f] ([name_f]Jewel[/name_f])
