I'm OK with Alice on a certain few people. It doesn't work for most people and why take a risk on a name that may not match your kid? Not me.
an old joke goes ...
A guy walks into a bar with a dog and says "For a free drink, my dog here will talk." The bartender says "All right, you got a free drink, le'ts hear the dog talk." The guy swallows the free drink and says to the dog "Who's the greatest baseball player of all time?"
The dog says "Ruth."
The bartender gets mad and throws them out of the bar. They get up and brush themselves off and the dog says, "I still say Ruth; Hank Aaron had more at-bats."

I can't like Alice fully, and I'm not sure why. I think the LISS sound makes it prissy and fragile.
