From what I understand, Alexis is not Slavic but greek in origin. It may have been more popular in Russia, that does not make it Slavic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.132.242.1 (talk) 17:50, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have just noticed that there is a page on Alexis Alexis_(given_name). This article should be merged with the original first name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.132.242.1 (talk) 17:54, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. There is nothing wrong with creating separate articles for national variations of a name. See, for example, the navigational template in Nicholas.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 18:08, February 24, 2009 (UTC)

Tight Definition[edit]

I think it should be expanded with other countries roots. Because now it's looks like translation from Russian Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.134.65.191 (talk) 22:33, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

IPA[edit]

What IPA is correct, ɐlʲɪkˈsʲej or əlʲɪˈksʲej or aɫʲɪkˈsʲej or some other?

There is not really 'correct' in these matters where people still quarrel about transliteration and transcription. Here, we see Alexis etc with an X while Russians in the English speaking world prefer to transcribe Ksenia, not Xenia. How the person wants it, that's 'correct'. 2001:8003:A070:7F00:B85F:E386:193E:DFE9 (talk) 00:16, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
