Re: Alix (ed)
in reply to a message by Kaatje
Queen Victoria's second dd was Alice. When she married a German prince, it was changed to the German form of the name Alix. Her dd Alix (Queen Victoria's granddaughter) is the one who married Tsar Nicholas II and became Alexandra (It was the closest / easiest to a Russian name for Alix that they had.)
