I was just about to say "What a handsome name!
Sam and
Alexis are both great names, and they sound nice together". Then I realized they had a daughter, not a son.
I'm totally not diggin'
Sam Alexis for a girl. It's just too masculine.
Sam is an OK nn for
Samantha,
Samara,
Samuela etc. but as stand-alone name it's too masculine for a girl, IMO. And I really dislike
Alexis on a girl because I love it so much for a boy. I'd hate to see it turning strictly feminine.
