Trying to find the perfect name for your little one is never easy because there are just way too many options to choose from.
Settling on one name you love can feel like a near-impossible task, but there is one now rare name you may want to consider.
A baby name expert has revealed that this name is going out of style, but we still think it's a charming choice.
Celebrity name consultant SJ Strum told Tyla that the name Alexa is going out of style, mainly because of AI.
"Some female names have been cancelled in recent years - Karen will take a long time to revive, and Alexa was lost to AI."
The name Alexa is of Greek origin and means 'helper of mankind.'
Despite its links to Amazon, this name is a pretty sweet option for your baby girl.
SJ Strum also revealed some pretty unique names that are set to come back in fashion this year, but we're not sure if we'll be adding all of these to our baby name lists just yet.
"Thora, Wilma, Mavis, Myrtle, and Phyllis could be ready for revival. Edgar, Arnold, Ernest, Clive, and Basil are just about old enough to sound fresh and new," she shared.
What baby name do you think will go out of style this year?
