Alexa?

I'm due next month with a baby girl and we have really struggled to agree on a name. What are your thoughts please? We didn't want anything too trendy that will date easily, not too popular and feminine without being too frilly. Do you think Alexa fits the bill?

Very eighties, and a bit frilly.

Love ALEXA

Hate Lexie

So probably wouldn't use it.

If you don't want something that'll date, I'd go for Alexandra.

I have an Alexa. She goes to nursery with Alexandra, Alexis & Lexie Grin
Not 80s/90s so much anymore then!

All separate names though, no abbreviations of Alexa so far (and I will not accept any Grin)

I prefer Alexis. My DS was going to be alexis if he was a girl...he was a boy so Alex it was Smile
