Alexis Name Origin and History

Additional description of the name Alexis
Additional description of the name Alexis

Just like Alexander, Alexis has a long history that precedes Christ. In Greek literature, Alexis is always given to beautiful and charming boys who are wanted by another character in the stories. This name is also historically connected to a prominent ancient poet. Although Alexander the Great is the first person that comes to our mind when we hear these "Alex" names, Alexis owes most of its popularity to a saint who lived in the 5th century. His presence in the Eastern Empire and Rome is why this name is very popular in Eastern Europe and the more Western parts. The transformation of Alexis to a feminine name occurred in 1940s in the U.S. Nowadays in most English-speaking countries his name is chosen for girls. While in other countries, this name is still chosen for boys as well. As a feminine name, Alexis is very popular in countries such as Canada, Australia, and the United States. When it comes to a name for boys, Alexis is very popular in France.

I was commenting on Christine's blog tonhigt and saw your dachshund picture. I also have a black and rust dachshund and Liesel is 8 months. If only she would be still enough to even'take a picture. She is hyperactive. She's my third doxie and sooo different than my previous two. I love her but sure wish she'd settle down some, not chew and bark all the time and at least show a hint of inter'st in being housebroken. She is a sweet puppy and has a beautiful shinny coat. Her mother is a long hair and her father is a short, smooth hair. Liesel has hair a little longer than the typical short hair and it is baby'smooth.

I was originally going to be called Alexandrea but it got changed to Alexis as I was named after my Dad whose name is Alexander. I really did not like my name growing up as a kid as people would tease me, but when I got into my late teens and early 20's people would say that they could always remember my name as it was so unusual and pretty! I was born in the 60's back in the UK so no one had ever heard of it...Now I love it!! But If people shorten it to "Alex" I promptly tell them politely that my name is Alexis not Alex!! My dad still calls me Lexy, my friends back in the UK still call me Lecky and my brother calls me Lex :)

My wife and i have named our first daughter Alexis. Most people where we live just go for very popular names. We did say to everyone Alexis or lexi, but people just go for one or the other. I'must say that i do get a bit worried that people don't get it or can't say it right, and have noticed that it is hard when you say 'That's Alexis`s toy, for example. People have to ask twice, or call her Alexia, a...lexi,etc.....why do i worry ❤️❤️❤️❤️ My wife on the other hand is totally confident of her name and announces it with great pride, and could give a dam if anyone says it wrong. I think that is the point...It is not always easy being unusual, but Alexis is really is a wonderful name, and i should just stop being worried and just be confident about her name. As if Alexis Carrington would of worried !

Hello, my name is Alexis

replay

Alexis is now a relatively common name. When I was born in the 1940s it was a very unusual name and its uniqueness continued until the 2002s with the popularity of the Dallas series. I respond instantly when I hear the name as most of my life they were only calling the name to attract my attention. It is a strange experience to have a name that begins unique and ends very popular. My only consolation is that I will be the only person in the old folks home whose name is Alexis. The othe's will follow me in about 30 years.

I really like my name. I go by Lexi sometimes but a lot of people prefer to call me Alexis because they say It's pretty. I do have a friend who had just moved to the US and couldn't pronounce my name'so he calls me Axis. I just thought that was kind of cute haha

Alexis is one of the beautiful names i have heard in the past three years. The first and only Alexis, is a female student in a Christian High School in GHana, and she has proven beyond every doubt that the name Alexis is a nice name. She has a nice personality and her relation with people is excellent. Unlike othe's, our students find the pronounciation of her name very easy! ALEXIS!

It is a pretty name, but i've found it to be too formal and princessy at times, probably because it takes three syllables. I generally go by Lex or Lexi and people seem to think It's edgy or cute. When I was a kid it was quite uncommon and people got it wrong all the time. I was named after my father and I'm proud to have a strong name with a beautiful meaning, "helper of mankind".

I am a 27 year old male named Alexis. Growing up i was teased a bit because people said it was a girls name, unless they were from a country outside of the U.S, in which case they thought of it as a boys name. I now love my name, and always liked that I was named after the great prize fighter Alexis Arguello. My whole life everybody, including my family has called me "Lex", which is a great nickname. So despite the teasing, it has become something I am very proud of and that I get n'thing but compliments for. It's a name that builds character.

Its inter'sting to see other people making comments about the name of Alexis. My name is Alexis also. I hate the nickname "Alex". I'make sure to tell people upon first meetings. i've also been called by Al (my father-in-law) has thick Cuban accent so he's kinda lazy to pronounce it. It's hilarious. Other nicknames Lexy and Lexie. One of my teacher loves my name and always calls out "Alexis Sue". i've worked with 5 Alexis(s). One was an african american (she was named after Alexis Carrington) I was born way before "Dynasty" show started. A Jewish girl named, Alexis, and a hispanic girl named Alexis as well. I'm blonde and brown eyed gal. Of course, I'm not happy that my name is getting popular :-(

This is not meant to be rude to all the people out there named Sage, because I love the name, but it is the name of our girl dog. I'met another dog by the'same name. It's a great name!

My name is Alexis and I love it! However, a lot of teache's call me Alex. Its a little annoying. Most of my friends and family call me Lexi or Lex, so the name holds possibility for nicknames which are always cute. So I pretty much love my name. Oh and somone posted that when'they think of an Alexis they think of someone with dark hair, well I'm Puerto Rican and i have dark hair, so i guess it fits! :)
