Not another Alexandra!
in reply to a message by Cristy
Though I do love the name (as I am an Alexandra), it generally shows a lack of creativity on the parents' behalf. What with the name being so popular, as well as other Alex- names (Alexis, Alexander, etc.), any child with the name feels a little bit less 'special'.
Trust me, it's very annoying being referred to as 'the female Alex', 'the brown-haired Alex', 'Alex in Year __' etc.
