Lexi

I don't know if I'd use it as a real name (what i mean is like not as a nickname for something) but I think it's fine. The only problem that I have seen with this name from reading the comments is people rhyming it with "sexy", and honestly it just shows that kids will make fun of any name, even the most normal and common names, they'll find a way.

My youngest daughter's name is Alexis Elena Jax but she hates Alexis for some weird reason and won't go by anything besides Lexi. Since I don't want the "wrath of Lexi" I go along with her wishes. She definitely is a type A personality. There is nothing meek or quiet about her. She was born a leader who does what she wants, won't let anyone tell her what to do and how to think.

I bet this name could be unisex. It's a nice diminutive of Alexander too!

My name is Lexi and personally I think it fits me well! I have blonde hair and blue eyes and I feel like that's what people would imagine a Lexi would look like. Especially when it comes to my full name I sound very sophisticated. I see someone named Lexi as a confident, understanding, powerful, and strong woman. I think Lexi has strong beliefs and has big dreams that she is working her hardest to reach. To all my Lexis out there, don't be insecure about your name! It's beautiful embrace it you got this ✊.

I personally love the name Lexi. It's beautiful as a nickname for Alexa or Allie but I also really really like Lexi on its own.

My name is Lexi Osborne, my siblings call me Lexi Sexy but I make fun of their names too, it's just family messing around. I am really proud of my name because it means "Man Protector" and my last name is Norse and it means "Bear God". People say that the name Lexi is weird or disgusting but I think it is special. Look at all the people with the name Lexi: Lexi Ainsworth- American actress, best known for portraying Kristina Davis on General Hospital, Lexi Alexander- German filmmaker and martial artist, Lexi Allen- also known by her mononym Lexi, American singer, actress and television personality, and Lexi Bender- American ice hockey player. I love my name and I bet other "Lexi's" are too!

Lexi is one of those graveyard names that has retired completely and shows no signs of resurgence.

I really like the name Lexi, and I think it’s a really cute name. I really prefer Lexi as a full name just on it’s own, but it can be used for longer names like Alexa, Alexia, Alexis, Alexie, Alexandra, Alexandria etc. I think Lexi sounds very cool and modern and I can imagine a pretty girl with long blond hair and maybe blue eyes. The only thing I do not like about this name is that it rhymes with sexy, and some Lexis get called Sexy Lexi. I’m considering this name for when I have a daughter in the future.

Please put a longer version (Alexis, Alexa, Alexine etc.) on her birth certificate.

Lexi on its own is just too cutesy and it rhymes with "sexy" which makes it weird and gross when used on a child.

My favorite diminutive for Alexandra so far.

Hi my name is Lexi, just Lexi not Alexandra, Alexis, Alexa, Lexa etc...I love my name, I think it's really pretty and unique and I don't think it sounds like a stripper name at all. My nickname is Lex and I love it! Also I watch this show called Vampire Diaries and there's a character named Lexi Branson that I like. One bad memory I had about my name though was when I was in second grade and this girl would call me sexy Lexi, but that was like seven years ago so... :)

Cute. Like the nickname Lex.

It sounds like a "try too hard" name.
People that are unattractive and want to be seen as sexy will most likely use the name (Lexi).

My daughter’s name is Alexandra. When she was five she wanted her nickname to be Alex. For some reason, it didn’t fit well. So she said her nickname for Alex was Ally. She did not understand her name was a lifeline. Then, we started discovering her character when she was 12. We all agreed with Lexie when she was eight, but she began maturing. It sounded too cute. Anyways, at 12 she wanted to model and was a sass expert. Lexi sounded like a stripper name, but after calling her Lexi she seemed much more mature and elegant. Now she is 16 and has started her acting and modeling career.

Lexie and Lexi are both equally great names! They just show different maturity.

I am not one who is overly fond of the name Lexi. It seems so tacky in its sound and it reminds me of Lex Luther. It also rhymes with sexy, which in fact, is an issue another teacher highlighted before me. It is just one of those tasteless names. Spelled Lexie is a little better, but not completely.

Lexi is an ugly name ew.

One of my friend's name's is Lexi. It is not short for anything. I would say I love this name!

I named my gecko this, I think this is a nice name, but someone could outgrow it easily. I think it's a wonderful nickname.

My name is Alexandra but I go by Lexi. In 1st grade when we were learning rhyming, this boy called me sexy Lexi. This is the only bad thing I’ve ever had happen with my name. No one has ever insulted my name until I’ve seen the previous comments now. My family and friends all love it. My closest friends and my parents call me Lex.

Cute :)

Not a classy name!

I think Lexi is a pretty name. My real name is Alexis and I don't really like my name because it seems medieval.

My name is Lexi and I think there is nothing wrong about the name. Sometimes my friends call me sexy but that is fine with me.

Wow! I just found a page full of people who keep bashing on my name! Personally, I think it's a great name. Just because someone met a Lexi that is mean does not, by any means, give you the right to categorize the name at all. Just because it rhymes with 'sexy' does not mean it's a stripper name either. My family calls me 'sexy Lexi' and to me, it's funny. I think it's a great name for a little girl, a teenager, and adult. And if not then I could always go by my full name which is Alexis. But, I think it is a very great name that doesn't categorize everyone with the name as a 'stripper or mean girl' :)

My name is Alexia, but I go by Lexi. It's probably not a great legal name because, I mean, it's just not a very serious name. I get called Sexy Lexi all the time in school, and I think I'll stop going by Lexi when I'm older. I just don't think you should name a girl this- it's cute and fun, but not classy or anything like that. Some people tell me that it sounds like a stage name. I don't know. It's a cool nickname though. Makes you seem fun!

It's something you would name someone very loved. It's very popular because everyone except YOU crazy people loves it.

Lexi has got to be the worst name I've ever heard.

It sounds stripperish :-(

If I hear one more girl named Lexi or Alex, I swear to God...

I think Lexi fits both descriptions. A great nickname for Alexa. But it is a stand alone name also.
I think it's very cute :)

Lexi/lexie sounds like a pornstar name because it sounds too much like "sexy." Usually Lexi is used as a nickname, because it is too cutesy and childish sounding to be used as a full name. It just sounds informal, tacky and trendy all at the same time.

I use Lexi as a nickname for my longer name Alexandria and I've always liked it. It's just easy to say, and quite pretty. I've met two other Lexi's in my lifetime, one was a half-cousin and the other a girl one grade ahead of me. Both of them are very nice, so when I think of anyone named Lexi I think of nice girls.

I just like Lexi as a name not a nickname. It just sounds cool.

It's cute as a nickname. But I don't think it's serious enough to be a legal name.

This is quite a common name and almost every other child is called Lexi. I think it is an OK name but overuse of it has spoiled any appeal it had.

This is my dog's name. It's a cute name but it fits a little girl (or dog) better that an middle aged woman so it isn't a name that could grow up with you.

I love this name but as a nickname for Lexanna.

This is a very childish nickname. There are better ways to shorten Alexandra. Why not Alex, Allie, or Sandy?

I had never really heard of the name until I met a girl named Lexi. I loved it instantly! It is such a pretty name - and quite unique too. Lexie is also pretty. It's a lovely name. I wish my name could have Lexi as a nickname! (:

I like the name Lexi for a teenage girl, or as a diminutive for Alexis, but I just wouldn't like that it rhymes with "sexy" therefore, I wouldn't want to use it on a kid.

I really liked this nickname when I first heard it, but eventually it got so popular that I got sick of it. It's like a lot of people name their daughters some Alex- name (Alexa, Alexandra, Alexis, Alexandria) just so they can give her the "cute" nickname Lexi(e). It also seems kind of childish, in comparison to the more traditional nicknames for Alex- names, like Allie, Al, and Alex.

I love this nickname for Alexandra, Alexa, or something along those lines! I know a girl name Lexi, and I had never heard of that name before I met her! It is a really pretty name. (:

I know several people with variations of this name (Lexi, Lexie, Lexy). Even though they're a little casual and short for my taste, they are pretty.

Personally I think Lexi is a cute nickname for Alexandra or Alexa. I know a sweet girl named Alexa and her nickname is Lexi. I think it's cute.

This seems like a name for a mean girl. I really would have to say it's one of my least favorite names.
