Alyx

Alyx is an English variant of Alice, which itself derives from the Old French name Aalis, a contracted form of Adalheidis, composed of the Germanic elements adal, meaning noble, and heid, meaning kind or type, giving an overall sense of noble natured. The spelling with y gives the name a modern, distinctive feel while preserving the same phonetic identity. Related forms include Alice, Alix, Alicia, and Alexa.
