Were leaning towards naming our son Alexi Rhodes. His brother is Andreas milo.

What are you first impressions?
We like A names dont know why!!
Anthony was another choice but wanted something a tad more unique!!

All ideas and opinions welcome!

Ps milo and Rhodes because its our favorite Greek islands!

Alexi does lean girl for me, but I can see it on a boy as well. I think that Anthony would've been too close to Andreas, so I think removing that was a good call. Overall, it's a nice name, but be prepared for people to occasionally expect a little girl instead.

I think Alexi works for a boy. That spelling does make me lean towards it being a girl, but have you considered the traditional spelling from Russia? It would be Alexei and it is more common to be seen on a male than a female.

Is it pronounced as uh-LEX-ee? If so it sounds to much like a girl's name to me.

 

:) Good luck!
