Please don't name your child Lexi. It's barely a real name--find something more formal she can put on a resume and call her Lexi at home if you love it that much.

We had some friends who had a baby girl in October, and they named her Alexis Ann (or Anne). They call her Lexi though.
I know that if I had a baby girl in the future that I would name her Alexa Grace or Alexandra Grace, but I would call her Lexi. It is one of my favorite names.

Well, seeing as how I have this barely real name, I would suggest Elizabeth, since it's my middle name My name spelled: Lexie, my maiden name is 3 syllables, and my married name is 2 My Mom wanted to call me Lexie, and didn't want people to shorten Alexandria to Alex, Plus my Name would have been a zillion letters long, so she named me what she wanted me called, and I love it... Seriously, if people can name their kids Apple, and other strange things, then you can name your baby w/e you want... Who's to say if it's a "real" name or not... lol, if someone is named something, it's really their name...

lol, this is my favorite rationalization ever. Of course people CAN name their kids whatever they want. That doesn't mean they should.
I personally am a fan of giving kids a formal name so they have options instead of naming them a nickname, but I don't think its the end of the world to go the nickname route.
