Well it's not like there were others called "Alix" anyway right?
It doesn't matter how many times I tell people they still spell my name "Alex" even on facebook >.<
Life would have been so much simpler if my name really was Alex, then the only thing I'd have left to worry about is people calling me "Alexandra" which also really freaking annoys me...a lot.
Having said that, there is a place in France called Alix and my French naming day is 9th January.
That's pretty much all I actually remember from French classes 12 years ago.
