Stripper name?

DH thinks it sounds like a stripper name. Agree or disagree?

I like Alexis Jae (pronounced Jay) 

He likes Alexis Jade (which to me, sounds more like a stripper name!)

  • They both sound like stripper names. 
  • Yep. A Lexus is a car, not a name. Alexis, Alexa are on the top of my most hated names list Ick!

  • IMO Jade, Crystal, and amber are stripper names. Pretty, but stripper names. I like Alexis Jae better than with the Jade added.

  • Alexis Jae = stripper

    Alexis Jade= porn star

  • I dont think the name "Alexis " or "Jade" are stripperish, but together they sound a bit "Jae" is a bit better...

    If you made the mn a little Classier like Alexis Marie, Alexis Elisabeth or Alexis Julia, then it would even things out.

    This. I think it's the Alexis part that sounds more stipperish than the middle names. But paired together, especially with Jae, makes it sound like a stripper name.

    Maybe Alexandra Jade?

  • Haha... both sound like stripper names!

  •  I like both. Not sure how it sounds stripper to you. Alexis in the past was a boys name

    UPDATE: sorry about my typo

  • I think they sound just fine, but when I asked my husband he said they sound like porn star names...????

  • BOTH are stripper names! 

    I agree with PP, that any of the "lex" names are stripper like.

  • Both names scream high heeled pleather boots....definitely stripper/porn star names.

  • I'm not a huge fan of Alexis but I've never thought of it as sounding at all stripperish.  I have a friend from childhood named Alexis whose dad is a poet and she's beyond extremely intelligent.  Jade does strike me as sounding like a stripper and/or porn star.

  • Alexis has always sounded stripperish to me.  I think I can just imagine her being announced as "sexy Lexi."

  • I hate to say it, but I think it sounds like a stripper name no matter what mn you put with it.  Embarrassed

    Exactly this. It's the combination of both names together. Especially since there is no last name to say with it, it sounds like Jae/Jade is the "final" name. This is the same as it would sound when scolding the child using fn and mn. Alexis by itself, or with a "classier" mn is better, but I still don't like it. And I always think of the joke, "I named my daughter Alexis, because if I wouldn't have had her, I'd be driving one." I also think of the episode of South Park where they do a spoof of Hooters and all the girls' names are after cars. Ex: Alexis, Mercedes, Porsche, Bentley, etc.

  • Yes. 

    I maybe a bad person to answer this question though. I deeply hate the name Alexis.

    There was a boy in high school who called me Sexy Lexie and I HATED it.  It was so embarrassing.

     

    I think Alexis Jae sounds less stripper-y than Alexis Jade, but I think I'd probably go with another middle name.

  • I agree, I hate the name Alexis! yuck.
  • If you have a chance to check this out-go to myspace and type in Alexis Jade or you can google her. She seems like a real 'classy chick'. By the the way she isn't a stripper-she is an adult entertainer. Cracks me up!

    I don't think it sounds stripperish, but I don't like it.
  • i think they both sound a little stripper-ish, sorry.

    This for me too, though Jade sounds more like a stripper then Jae.

  • I have a very good friend who's name is Jaie (pronounced Jay). She gets many compliments on it. Together I think they sound nice. Plus, I'm a beliver that the person makes the name not the reverse. So unless you will be raising your child in a strip club, I think you're safe :)
