== Alexander and Alexandra == |
|||
I would suggest two improvements to the "Alex is sometimes short for Alexander and Alexandra" claim: |
|||
1) Move it to the article proper (the introduction) |
|||
2) Make the names wiki-links so you can click them |

== Male and Female == |

I would suggest each entry is marked male or female. Otherwise the only way to know the entries' gender is to click each and every link. [[Special:Contributions/85.227.226.235|85.227.226.235]] ([[User talk:85.227.226.235|talk]]) 13:02, 4 February 2008 (UTC) |

I think the contrebution about "An Alex" should be put back in place in "Other usage". This makes it easyer to find the article you are interested in. |
