About Alexa
Alexa was a steadily popular modern classic until Amazon's virtual assistant Alexa was released in 2013. It remains relatively well used in the US despite this, though its standing keeps dropping for obvious reasons. Too bad, because it's a strong and pretty name (which is probably why Amazon used it.)
Alexa is also given to boys.
Pronounced uh-LEK-suh.
As of October 2026, Alexa ranked #1029 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #32 in 2015, Nameberry popularity #923.
