Alessandra

Thoughts on Alessandra?

Nicknames?

Middle names?

NN that comes to Alie or Sandra.  (Both with an "AH" instead of "Aey")  Example:  "AH"lie instead of Alley or S"AH"ndra instead of SAND-dra.

This is my name! I go by Allie or Aless (pronounced sort of like Alice). I think Alessandra Violet, Alessandra Isabel or Alessandra Elspeth would be lovely.

Love it.

My natural inclination is to shorten to Ali.

My friend's name is Alessandra. She goes by Alee.

Same here. My friend goes by only one "e", but I would assume it would still be produced the same way. It's a beautiful name.

Beautiful name!  Knowing me, if it was my DD, DH and I would just call her "Al".  We have a Johanna and we call her Jo most of the time (though Jojo and Joey are all her nns). But I think "Les" is super cute too.

A lot of they common one and two syllable middle names sound nice in my opinion: Alessandra Marie, Alessandra Lynn, Alessandra Grace

I love it. 

I know one and she goes by Sasha.  

I can't remember what her mn is, I think it's her mom's maiden name (her mom is from Russia so I'm not 100% on that).

I like Alessandra Elspeth, as pp suggestion. Lovely.

I love it!

I would probably use Al or Ali/Ally/Allie as a NN.

I immediately lean towards one syllable MN's. Do you have a long last name?How about Rose, Mae, Rae, Grace, Kate as MN's?
