I don't think Tex has to be such a masculine name. It's my nickname-because of my middle name (Texanna), and I've grown fond of it. I now sign my papers as Katie "Tex".

This sounds like the name of dimwitted rednecks.

Tex Ritter (he was no dumb redneck). That guy had a great voice, and he was an awesome actor.

This name is totally ridiculous. It would sound pathetic in Texas, and just plain weird anywhere else. Tex sounds rather like the name of a dog or a redneck.

I know a girl I met at a summer French immersion program named Madeline whom everyone called Texas or Tex, because that's where she she lives. I still think it's a bit weird though.
