Names with an X in!

A bit obscure I know, but I am 33w pg with our first baby . We both seem to like names with a hard X sound e.g. Max, Felix, Roxanne.

I was wondering if any kind MNetters could think of any more, as it is not the sort of thing we can easily look up on baby name lists!

Nothing too 'outlandish'! - we are quite ordinary with a very ordinary surname!

Thanks in advance!

I knew a woman with a daughter named Pixie. The mum was very hurt when Pixie eloped with her chap instead of doing the big wedding.

Payback, I reckon.

Felix is my fave boys name and I love Alexa or Alexis for a girl.

Trixie
Dixie
Alexa
Alexia
Alexis
Alexei
Lexi
Flix (short for Felicity usually)

Personally I would stick with Felix from your boys list - truly fab name (also love Xavier) but if looking for other boys names you could always pillage the Brangelina back catalogue.

We prefer the hard x sound, but we are open to suggestions! Thanks
