Whitney, Alexa, or Lexi???

Good evening!
Hubby and I are currently down to three choices: Whitney, Alexa, and Lexi. We adore all three of them, but just don't know which one should be it.
The problem is, she has an older brother named Alex, so we think that it would be really awkward if we have a Alex and a Alexa.
Also, we are not sure wether to name her Alexa and call her Lexi, or just Lexi(and if we name her Lexi we can kind of avoid the Alex and Alexa thing, but we just love love Alexa and don't want to ditch it).
And we use to really think about naming her Whitney Alexa, but feel bad for using such a adorable name as a middle name.
So what do you guys think?
Ps: we really don't want new names, but thanks.

You can’t have Alexa or Lexi and Whitney is hideous.

Time to think of some new names

Of course you like the name Alexa, but that’s the same reason as you like the name Alex! You seriously cannot call your children basically the same name.
It has to be Whitney then.

considering what you’ve said, I would go with Lexi. Love this name! xx
