I just came across this name while browsing birth announcements in the local paper.  
Thoughts?
I don't like it.  The spelling that is.

I get where it's coming from (wanting to actually pronounce the 'zandria' bit with a Z), but I think it's a bit too much, especially considering the X makes a Z sound anyway, like in Xander or Xavier - but then I guess it's usually pronounced alex-AN-dree-a anyway. It kind of looks all right written, but it'd be better if it were Alyxandria if they had to have the Y instead of an E.

That's worse than the teenaged mother who brought on her baby with unknown-baby-daddy-status on Maury a couple weeks ago, with the baby's name being... Xzander. That's it. Not even Alexzander. It made me cringe so hard...

I'm not a fan of alternate spellings to begin with, but that one is especially... ahem... unusual.

Wow, someone had a little bit too much trying to fit random letters into THAT one... I feel like it's missing a K or something. I mean, if you're going to go that nuts, might as well go balls out... Alykxzahndryuh maybe...
