I’ve got two best friends named [name_u]Alex[/name_u] who I might name one of my kids after. The only problem is: I hate their name (Sorry guys I love u just not ur name!). I’m not the biggest fan of [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] or [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f].
So far I like [name_u]Alexis[/name_u] (b) and [name_u]Alexios[/name_u] (b). Sorry if this is a bit tricky! Thank you :]

For a girl, I like Alexie, Lexie, Sasha or Alessia. 
For a boy, Xander, Alec, Alasdair or Sasha.

[name_m]Alistair[/name_m] is a male variation of [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] (sounds like alice-ter or alice-tuhr). [name_u]Or[/name_u] you could swap the letters around to make [name_u]Axel[/name_u].
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] could work for a girl! [name_u]Or[/name_u] [name_f]Alexandrine[/name_f], [name_f]Alicia[/name_f], [name_f]Alison[/name_f].

[name_u]Sasha[/name_u] for boy or girl
[name_m]Ilex[/name_m] is the Latin word for [name_u]Holly[/name_u] but sounds close enough.

I have a friend named [name_f]Alexia[/name_f], always thought it was familiar while also being uncommon
