Agatha Christie mentioned a lady named Alix in "The Dead Harlequin". I personally prefer this name above the usual Alice because of the unique touch the "x" gave.
Alix is a German variant of 'Alice'. Named for her mother Princess Alice, Alix of Hesse, grandaughter of Queen Victoria of England, was the wife of Czar Nicholas II of Russia, who was murdered, along with her husband and five children, in 1918.
One of Eleanor of Aquitaine's daughters was Alix. Queen Victoria's dear daughter, Alice, married a German and changed her name to Alix. Her dear daughter, Alix, changed her name to Alexandra when she married Tsar Nicholas II. It's a name with a lot of history behind it.
