My legal name is Alexis, but everyone's always called me Lexi. Honestly, I don't really like either and I've been thinking about calling myself Alex instead. I'm about to go to college so its pretty much now or never to go by a new name.
What should I do /adv/? I'm kind of scared my new name won't stick or something like that. Has anyone here ever changed their name and how did it work out?

As an adult, you want a name that conveys professionalism. It's like a guy named William who was called Billy as a kid but settles on Bill as an adult. The transition should be easy.

Why though? Lexi's a cool name, wish I was called that instead of Alex when I was younger. Alex always sounded dry and boring to me, and while I wasn't very fond of Alexis either, its at least hell of a lot better than Alex.

Why? Because I want to change my name?

Lexi just sounds like a little kid name to me and it kind of makes me cringe when I hear it. Alex is the only other choice I have because I dislike Alexis and my middle name.

It's your name; do whatever you want.

You don't need to legally change anything. Just tell people what to call you

I'm rather find of the name Alexis. For girls anyway.
