Love Alexandra.

Zoflorabore · 07/09/2018 21:42

My dd (7) has a best friend called this but is known as Alex. She suits it! And is the only one in the school.

Yika · 07/09/2018 21:25

Very pretty and classy.

DramaAlpaca · 07/09/2018 21:25

Wonderful name.

HPLikecraft · 07/09/2018 21:24

My favourite name, so of course my oldest DD is one!

kenandbarbie · 07/09/2018 18:11

Yep I like it!!

mintich · 07/09/2018 17:56

Love Alexandra. Strong, elegant name which is not overly popular

hellsbells552 · 07/09/2018 17:54

It’s my top girl name too 🙂 love the nicknames Allie, Alex and Sandy!

Pollydidntputthekettleon · 06/09/2018 20:48

Beautiful name.
Hate Alex though Sad

SilverySurfer · 06/09/2018 19:57

It's a wonderful name. I also like Alexandria which is just a little different

Glumglowworm · 06/09/2018 19:50

I really like it

It’s timeless, classic and strong

ImNotBusyImLazy · 06/09/2018 19:49

Love Alexandra. Love Alex as a shortened version, too.

DollyDayScream · 06/09/2018 19:49

I think it's lovely.

ReginaPhalange89 · 06/09/2018 19:46

I like it !
Don't really think of anything when I hear it though, but I think thats because I don't know any Alexandra's

Sunflower321 · 06/09/2018 10:32

I like it and Alex is a great nickname.

TheMagicTorch · 06/09/2018 10:27

I love it, would have been a girls name on my list if my cousin hadn't used it for her lovely daughter

steppemum · 06/09/2018 10:24

I like it, it is an elegant but strong name.

Loads of options for a short version, Alex, Lexie, Sasha, Xandre, etc

DC06 · 06/09/2018 10:23

I love Alexandra. It's defo my top girls name at the moment. It makes me think of a
happy, adventurous little girl with blonde curls. My DP likes it as he loves nn.Alex as he thinking it wont put her in a 'frilly, girly' box as it's unisex x

Katjolo · 06/09/2018 08:32

Fab name

gilmoregal · 06/09/2018 08:28

Excellent name... it's my name

Let her decide how to shorten it. I hate Alex it doesn't suit me at all and have been Lexie since early teens.

abbie7 · 06/09/2018 08:26

I like Alex on its own for a girl!

bellalou1234 · 06/09/2018 03:35

Lovely. Really like Alex too thinks it's classy

Sophronia · 06/09/2018 03:34

Lovely

moredoll · 06/09/2018 03:31
