i can think of four doods i know who are just “alex”

two are 100% homosexual. the other two are younger millennials and pretty gay too

real reason i’d avoid it though is that it’s a unisex name now. girl alexmos all over the place these days

thanks. Any name can be unisex these days, which doesn't seem like a good reason to rule out otherwise good names, but I dunno.

Alexander is a more classical name in my mind. But I like long names. Its good to give the kid options.

I'm strongly anti-nickname as name. if you name him alex he'll have to spend the rest of his life correcting people. It's better than a "fun" spelling like Alyxynder, but just barely
