A name for either a girl or a boy.

In a girl: Usually used as a nickname for "Alexandria" or "Alexandra". A girl with the name Alex is usally witty and sarcastic, but not always the smartest. They are not dumb, but they care about other aspects of life (i.e. Family, Friends, Religion) more than education.

In a boy: Usually used as a nickname for "Alexander". A boy with the name Alex is typically also witty and sarcastic, but very intelligent as well. They usually care about education very much, but are also very caring of their friends and family, and would put their friends/family ahead of themselves anyday. Sometimes they even do things that could potentially hurt themselves just to help someone else out.
In a girl: Alex is so funny and sarcastic, which is weird because she only has a C+ in her writing class!

In a boy: Alex is so intelligent and witty, I think I may very well be falling in love with him.
