History & Origin
Alexiz is a modern respelling of Alexis, from the Greek alexein, to defend or help; the z ending updates the look. As a boys' name it echoes the classical, masculine use of Alexis; it stayed rare in United States records, given to only a couple dozen boys a year at its high around 2004.
A boy named Alexiz from the mid-two-thousands is a teen or young adult today. The respelling reflects the era's taste for personalized spellings rather than a revival, and the standard Alexis remains far more common for boys and girls alike.
