Strictly a man's name in non English speaking countries. It literally means defender of man. Not understanding the comments of girls outside of ignorance.

Alexis sounds very masculine. Awesome name for a strong, confidant Man.
Alexis in Spanish, French and Russian is about 90% Male. You don't pronounce the S in those languages. In English the S is pronounced which is why it is also given to girls in those places. In the states this is a name for both. I grew up in Puerto Rico and never really had a problem with it until I moved to the States. I don't pronounce the S but go by Alex in the states to avoid any confusion when addressing people via email and so forth. I am 6'5 270 pounds, so very much a man. The people that say this is just a girl's name are ignorant and need to travel outside of their country to get a better perspective on different cultures.
Alexis is a name for girls.
I'm pretty sure this is only used as a female name in the US (I don't know about other anglophone countries). Everywhere else it's a boy's name.
I like this name. It's my second name. It's an unisex name. It's also related to Alexander.
This is definitely a boys' name in France. No one would dare use it for a girl. I don't see why anglophones use it on girls.
In France, it's only masculine.
Also a Spanish name. Usually only used as a male name and pronounced Ah-leh-xees.
Also used in Spanish, usually as a male's name. There is Mexican actor Alexis Ayala. The name would be pronounced Ah-leh-xees.
