If it's Alexandra vs Anastasia alone, I'd choose Anastasia
But if we're considering nicknames, I prefer Alex, Alexis, Alexa, Lexie, Sandra, Sandy far more than Ann / Anne, Anna, Annie, Stasia, Stacy, like leagues more.
Though, I prefer Alexander over both, so if I would to be inclined, I'd choose Alexander for a son over Alexandra for a daughter
However, I can't do that because Alexander is a close family name, so Anastasia would have to win there

Anastasia. Stacy is actually starting to grow on me, and that nickname used to be the reason I always considered Anastasia to be "unusable". But Stacy is so rare nowadays, I can't remember the last time I came across one! It's acquiring a fun 70s patina now, so I guess I prefer Stacy to Allie or Alex or Lexie etc. Alexandra sure is beautiful though.
Both are nice names, but I’d be more likely to go with Anastasia “Annie”.
