HelpI may be the only one...
in reply to a message by Amy
but I am SO sick of seeing Alex- names every time I turn around. I guess its better than Alexis or anything else, but still, I cant stand seeing these names.
As far as mn, I would suggest using something shorter, possible one syllable, especially if the surname would be longer. I cant think of any, I cant seem to focus on much right now.

I don't like Alex- names for girls. The only Alex- name I like is Alexander.

I agree.

I am not a fan of other Alex names either.
Alexa, Alexis et al are getting so overused.
If we were to use Alexandra, it would be just that.. Alexandra.
I know there are nay sayers out there that say she'd definitely have a nick name eventually... but that's not necessarily the case.
I have a cousin Katherine...she's 22 now and NO nn whatsoever.
I have a niece Cassandra... she's 12 and no nickname.
It is possible.
Thanks for you input.

I dont believe that nn's are a must. I am really loathing the fact that most people here seem to think its going to happen to matter what. I know many people with a full name that gets shorten a lot, but wont let it. They say their parents always called them by their full name, so thats what they always went by. If they ever used a nn it was a SO or a best friend since childhood kind of deal.
Either way, I think Alexandra is the best Alex- choice, and with no nn, I am liking it more. However, I am still sick of hearing Alex- names in general.
I'm not great with making combos, espeicially for girls, but here are some I thought of:
Alexandra Clare
Alexandra Gail
Alexandra Leigh
Alexandra Noelle
