Yes No Ban the real name usage? - Results (15 votes) Yes 33.33% (5 votes) 5 No 66.67% (10 votes) 10 Since Amazon Alexa has come out the usage of the name Alexa has gone down significantly. Babies arent really being named Alexa anymore. And people named Alexa have also suffered due to Amazon co-opting the name. I recently saw an ad for a product "Erica" being used as a virtual assistant. And I dont want that name to suffer the same treatment.
