I prefer [name\_f]Alexa[/name\_f] over [name\_u]Alexis[/name\_u], and to tell you the truth I’m not sure why. For some odd and unknown reason the -xis at the end of [name\_u]Alexis[/name\_u] bugs me. Weird I know. I know you didn’t list these [name\_u]Alex[/name\_u]+ names but my ultimate favorite is [name\_f]Alexandra[/name\_f] followed by [name\_f]Alexia[/name\_f]. ---

I might have answered differently a year ago, but right now I think the Amazon connection would get really annoying. I could sit “witty” people barking random orders at an [name\_f]Alexa[/name\_f] and it could get old fast. ---

I prefer [name\_u]Alexis[/name\_u]. I just like the -is ending more than the usual -a. It has a sort of tomboyish feel to it, that I like. ---

I prefer [name\_f]Alexandra[/name\_f] ([name\_u]Alex[/name\_u]) or [name\_f]Alexia[/name\_f]. I voted [name\_f]Alexa[/name\_f] because I prefer that sound, but the Amazon product connection is quite strong at the moment. ---

I prefer [name\_u]Alexis[/name\_u]! Once a upon a time, I knew I lovely little girl by the name. She was sweet, and everything you could only hope your child would be! addittionally, the -xis, i find, is easier to say then -a. Also what about the nickname [name\_u]Lex[/name\_u] or [name\_u]Lexi[/name\_u]? ---

I prefer [name\_u]Alexis[/name\_u] - I’ve always find it quite cool and stylish, whereas [name\_f]Alexa[/name\_f] just feels a bit bland and boring to me, and (I’m not sure why) a little ‘dated’. ---

I know 2 people named [name\_u]Alexis[/name\_u], both female. One is in her 20s, one is in grade school. One uses nn [name\_u]Alex[/name\_u], the other nn [name\_u]Lexi[/name\_u]. I may have used it for a kiddo if I wasn’t already close with 2 of them. ---

I’m going to say [name\_u]Alexis[/name\_u], but I’m biased (it’s my name). I love my name, there are so many nn possibilities! [name\_u]Ali[/name\_u], [name\_u]Alex[/name\_u], [name\_u]Lexi[/name\_u], I go by all them to different people. [name\_f]Alexa[/name\_f] has a strong product association right now.
