My husbands name is Alexander. Of course everyone calls him Alex but the name suits him to a "T". He is a very strong, determined individual and sometimes comes off a little too strong but has a wonderful heart. He's always willing to go the extra mile for somebody.

Alex could be used for a boy or girls name. (Although it sounds better as a boys name) Its just like the name Austin, that is my daughters name. It just depends...

Alex is my son's name and it suits him perfectly. I think Alex suits a boy better, Alexa or Alexis should be used for girls.
Alexander

My husbands name is Alexander; He's a United States Marine so his name fits well! 'Defender of Mankind'. We're Irish and when we have a little boy we plan to name him Brody Alexander. It has a nice ring to it.
