Alexei

• (al-EX-ay) - A great Russian alternative to the over-used Alexander.  
• Alexei NoahCute names, flow together, to make a individual unique stand.
• Alexei Simon: I absolutely love the name Alexei.  It is unusual, beautiful, and sounds vaguely androgynous, a quality I enjoy in boys' names but not in modern girls' names. Simon is uncommon, and makes me think of nerd boys, and as someone who married a nerd boy, this is no bad thing. 

This is a Russian form of the Greek name Alexios, meaning "helper; defender." Alexis is another form of this name, which is more common for girls in the USA, but used mainly for boys in other languages.
