'I had a Christmas card from someone calling herself Alex the year before last,' Daniel said. 'I couldn't think who it was.' 'Oh, yes, she's changed again,' Alice said.

Etimologia
Clipping of Alexander, from Ancient Greek Ἀλέξανδρος (Aléxandros) 'he who wards off men', i.e. protector, possibly of Hittite origin. Also from Alexius, from the same Ancient Greek first element, "helping, defending". These two origins of Alex are indistinguishable in most languages. The female name has the same root, a clipping of Alexandra or the female name Alexis, in some cases also a spelling variant of Alix.
