|  |     How about Alexis?   (ha ha - only kidding)
    
    I think the name should be one syllable (because Alexander has so many)
    and end in a constanent (sp?)  (becuase Alexander starts with a vowel)

|  | I don't think the name should necessarily be 1 syllable.  It just shouldn't
end in an "a".
How about Jacquelyn Alexander?  I think it sounds elegant.

P.S. My son's daycare teacher is named Amy Alexander and I think that sounds
	rather nice (altho I've never been real fond of the name Amy)

|  |     Christine Alexander                               
    Charlene Alexander                Allison Alexander (that's kinda nice!
    Jonelle Alexander
    Justine Alexander                 Then again, if they call her Alli -
    Rene Alexander                    Alli Alexander sort of sounds like
    Joy Alexander                     "All 'e All 'e  in the Tree" that
                                       children scream when they play
                                       kick the can.  (but still DOES sound
                                       kind of nice!)

|  |     Well Kristi is 2 centimeters dialated but we still are not sure on the
    final name.  All of the sugestions have helped and I guess we will wait
    to see the baby and go from there.  What about Katherine xxx Alexander and
    calling her something like Katy or one of those type of nicknames? 
    Any ideas on this?  By the way our son is 2.5 years old and his name is
    Michael James Alexander and we call him Michael not Mike.  We had an
    early ultrasound and we have a 70% chance of a girl.  Its funny that a
    lot of the names sugested were my family's names. Here are some of my
    relitives names:
    NANCY JANE (MOTHER)
    DENISE LYNN  (SISTER)
    CELESTE ANN  (SISTER
    SUZANNE EVE  (SISTER)
    YEVETTE   (AUNT)
    VICTORIA  (GRANDMOTHER)
    JANE
    MARY
    KATHERINE (reciently passed away)
    RACHEL 
    STEVEN (BROTHER)
    You were right on the nose here, my father's name is 
    Alexander Alexander or Alex for short. He says it was horrible growing
    up with that name in school. So you folks get an A+ from me, thanks for
    all of the replys.
    
    Signed,
    William C. Alexander

|  |     Katherine-Katie?
    
    Be prepared for there to be about 10 other "Katie's" in her class! 
    This is a VERY common name right now.  I have a niece named Katherine
    (Katie), and in her class there are 4 others!
    
    Katie, Jenny and Jessy (Katherine, Jennifer and Jessica) are overly
    picked.

|  |     I second what K.C. said about Katie...  Very common now.  I go
    by just plain Kathryn - no nicknames - and I like my name very
    much, but it wasn't so common (especially the spelling) when
    I was growing up.  But now, boyoboyoboy...  I know several little
    girls with my name and all spelled the same way.
    
    - Kathryn
    
    P.S.  Did someone mention Elizabeth?  I think that sounds pretty
    good with Alexander.  There's so many variations, too.  Liz, Beth,
    Betsey, Lizzy (I love for a little girl) etc. etc.

| 477.15 | Have pity on the child!  ;^) | STEREO::FAHEL | Amalthea Celebras, Luincarandir | Thu Jan 25 1990 13:26 | 9 | 
|  |     I still feel that a SHORT first name should go with a LONG last name. 
    Otherwise, the kid will have severe writer's cramp by the time she's 7! 
    
    I have never understood my brother giving his daughter the full name
    Natasha Lee Corrine Coutermarsh!
    
    Just my opinion...

| 477.16 | It's a girl! | CSC32::W_ALEXANDER |  | Mon Feb 19 1990 14:19 | 11 | 
|  |     Well I back, and we had a girl.  Elizabeth Anne Alexander.
    She was 8lb 9 3/4oz and 20 1/2in long.  We were still weren't sure
    untill she was born and then we started naming names wile looking at
    her and she did not look like any name we picked out.  Then we said
    Elizabeth and we both agreed that was it.  We are using the full name
    for now.  One funny note was that this name had no family history and
    nobody had suggested it, but after I told my mom what it was she
    said that was the christian name she was baptized with but had
    forgot it (her name is Nancy Jane).  So thanks for all of the input.
    
    Will
