How many Alexis' do you know? Is it really so common? I saw this is one of the most popular names in the states, but i don't know any, though I think the name is wonderful, strong, sophisticated yet so exotic in its pronounciation. I think i prefer the spelling Alexys, looks welsh like Carys! Can you think of names that also have these traits?

I personally only know one Alexis, but the name is fairly popular these days. In 2003 for example, Alexis was number 7, Alexandra was 38, Alexa was 66, Alexandria was 124, Alexia was 134, ans Alexus was 373. So if you're looking for an unusual name, I would stay away from Alexis or any other Alex- name. As for Alexys, it just looks misspelled to me.
