Give it a trial run. Introduce yourself to new people as Alexander: tell your friends and family that you are in the process of changing your name, and ask them to use Alexander so that they'll be used to it when the paperwork has been done. And give it a month or so. Then you'll have facts to work with instead of just opinions.
