Though it is a nickname for Alexander, I think Lex is a bit girly sounding. Alex has a more masculine sound. Lex could work as a nickname for Alexandra or Alexa if that’s a full name for girls.

On this page, under Related Names, OTHER LANGUAGES/CULTURES, it says "Alexander, Alexandros (Greek Mythology)". That is not correct. Alexander, or Alexandros in Greek, is the name of several ancient Greek historical characters, but not a single mythological character. Therefore "Greek Mythology" is incorrect. It should just say "Classical Greek".

I find this a good name for both boys and girls, but not as a 'proper' name, as a nickname then yes I love it. Before I never actually thought of it as a nickname for a male, as always I thought it to be short for Alexa and Alexis.
