I’ve always been called Alex as a nickname but it sounds kinda boyish, so i want a nickname like allie or lex or alexa or i saw someone say Zia and that would literally be so cool but it’s hard to start a nickname for urself
Same girl. Everybody used to call me Alex but it is kinda boyish so I just told everybody that I prefer Lexie. And now they call me like that. I also like Allie too, its pretty. Decide which one you prefer and just tell everybody that thats how you want them to call you and they will get used to it.
Just do it without overthinking it too much ☺️
