Alexis? Do you think boy or girl?

[LaWeasel]

Just curious about first impressions.

Girl

(Blame my 80s youth: Dallas, etc)

Girl.

the only person i ever have known called Alexis was a girl.

Defo a girl x

Boy. Going against the grain, clearly!

I think kid with PIA (with good reason-PIA ex) mum from 'Outnumbered'

Both.

Traditionally a boys name, and that's what I used to expect invariably. But since Dynasty, It no longer surprises me on a girl.

I think boy too! The first Alexis I met was a boy, so I suppose that is why.

But DH insists it is a girls name...

Girl. All the way!!! I have never even heard of it being used on a boy! How awkward that would be... It is viewed here as a very girly name!!

I think boy.

Alexis = actor from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Def girl

Don't you like Alexander?

Girl.

I know it's unisex name but my first reaction would be girl because everyone I know with that name is a girl.

Alexis Denisof is awesome He's part Russian I think?

But I have also met a very English boy Alexis.

girl

Alexis Colby (showing my age...!)

Alexander is fine, it's just very long. I like quite short names.

Girl - think dynasty -was that Joan Collins?

I also think girl, because of Alexis Colby. Lots of Dynasty watchers emerging from the undergrowth.......

Girl. Because I know a female Alexis.

Girl - Dynasty too.

Girl, Dynasty, sorry :)

However, I am aware that it is a Russian boys' name so wouldn't be surprised to hear it was a boy IYSWIM

girl. alexai for a boy perhaps?

Boy. I had to think quite hard about girls, and I wouldn't want a child burdened with the name of a shoulder-padded tranny.
