Alix is also an old French form of Alice.For instance: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alys%2C_Countess_of_the_Vexin
"[Alys] is also known as Alaïs, Adélaïde, Adèle, Alais, or Alix." [noted -ed]
Popular in Norman times, the name was then pronounced more closely to modern "Alice" and was an early variant of that name.
As a feminine name, it is a variant of Alice (as Beatrix is to Beatrice).
Also could be from the ancient Greek word "allix", means coat.
