Looking for opinions/suggestions. We are having a girl and we keep coming back to Lexi but still can't decide if we love it. My question is: is Lexi ok as a full name or does it need to be a nn? I dislike all the names that Lexi is a nn for, by the way. Other names we like are Carly, Gabby and a few others but we are pretty stuck! Suggestions?!
Also, I'm a Sara and was one of 7 in my class and would really like something that's not popular!
We had an old neighbor named Lexi growing up. It honestly never occurred to us that her name had a longer form but I'm sure it must have. Now as a parent I think you would be doing your daughter a service to at the very least give her the option of going by Lexi but having Alexandra or Alexis on her resume. Same goes for Gabby/Gabriella.

That's what I was thinking, too. Like I said though, I really don't love any of the names that shorten to Lexi so maybe we will just have to move on!
I've always loved Lexi. I almost named our daughter Lexi but it was really popular at the time (12 years ago) so we went with Paige instead. The Alexis/Lexi trend has since died off and you don't hear it as much. I think it's fine as a stand alone name.

Probably for the best. Lexi is a great nickname, but it's not the best full name. Best of luck.
