Alexie -
special from day one

In fact, the name Alexie hardly fits the trend of first names for girls. Between 1976 and 1999, young parents changed that a bit. For many years, Alexie wasn't given at all (or at least less than 5 times, because that's the number required for a name to appear in the statistics), but by 1998, the name was more popular than ever. Although the name never ranked higher than position 1,731, 82 parents chose it in 1998 as a potential new rising star on the horizon of beautiful and rare names. If your name is Alexie, you were already special when you were born - and you did your best to become a trendsetter.

In years where the graph has no value, the name Alexie was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
