I love this nickname for Alexandra, Alexa, or something along those lines! I know a girl name Lexi, and I had never heard of that name before I met her! It is a really pretty name. (:
I really liked this nickname when I first heard it, but eventually it got so popular that I got sick of it. It's like a lot of people name their daughters some Alex- name (Alexa, Alexandra, Alexis, Alexandria) just so they can give her the "cute" nickname Lexi(e). It also seems kind of childish, in comparison to the more traditional nicknames for Alex- names, like Allie, Al, and Alex.
I like the name Lexi for a teenage girl, or as a diminutive for Alexis, but I just wouldn't like that it rhymes with "sexy" therefore, I wouldn't want to use it on a kid.
I had never really heard of the name until I met a girl named Lexi. I loved it instantly! It is such a pretty name - and quite unique too. Lexie is also pretty. It's a lovely name. I wish my name could have Lexi as a nickname! (:

This is a very childish nickname. There are better ways to shorten Alexandra. Why not Alex, Allie, or Sandy?
This is my dog's name. It's a cute name but it fits a little girl (or dog) better that an middle aged woman so it isn't a name that could grow up with you.
