What spelling to use?

[Denice91]

Hi All, pregnant of my second girl and we cannot figure out the spelling of her name. Her big sis goes by Macy and we have the name lexi/lexxie for the second girl. What spelling do you like the most?

Lexie

Lexi

Lexie
Definitely not Lexxie why would you?

Lexi

Single x.

I think the more Xs the better. Lexxxie would be my top choice.

Why not alexia or alexis with nickname lexi? Lexi to me reads like a juvenile nickname and she may not appreciate that when she's older. Think CVs and prejudiced potential employers.

Don't like either tbh. Lexi as a preference

Alexis or Alexandria

The additional x is pointless. It doesn't add a different sound to the name just looks weird and a bit childish. Sorry.

I would go for Alexandra on the birth certificate and shorten it to Lexi. Lexi is a Scottish shortening of Alexandra and would allow her a more formal name if she ever needed one.

Alexandria shortened to Lexi. As someone else has said always think how a name will look to potential employers (l know that's a long way off at the moment). Obviously you've got to love the name but that's what I did fwiw.

Or Alexander shortened to Lexi?!

Sorry Alexandra not Alexander 🙄

Lexi rather than Lexxie. The second spelling is awful.

Though Lexie seems to be the most widely used spelling of it so I’d go with that if you really want to use that name.

It's Lexi

The others just look like spelling errors

I like the spelling Lexie 💖 however out of them two Lexi 😍

If you really want Lexxie, go with Alexa/ Alexandra as others have said and shorten it.

Not just for CVs, but imagine her spelling it over the phone in years to come 'yes, that is two Xs' - it will always sound like a mistake.

The one with double x looks like a teenager's snap chat username. Id go lexie.

Like pp suggestions of it as a nn for alexia/alexis/Alexandra.

The double x is like something a twelve year old would choose

Lexie would be my choice, I’d probably use Alexis or something and have Lexie as a nickname but I do really like it

Lexi

There’s never any need for two x’s. Don’t do that.

Lexie is nicest, what will it be short for?

Lexi or Lexie. The extra x is a bit unnecessary and she'll be sick of people spelling her name wrong all the time! Cute name.

Congrats on your pregnancy. Best of luck!

You are pregnant with not of.
Lexi. Not keen but if you love it... Lexxie has too many xs.

Lexi...that's the spelling people would guess at when they hear this name. Any other spelling and she'll have to spell out her name all the time, which is really annoying (trust me!).
