Alexandra, commonly known as "Alex," is a recurring fictional character on the ABC television series Lost played by Tania Raymonde. She was born 16 years prior to the crash of Oceanic Flight 815, but was taken from her mother, Danielle Rousseau (Mira Furlan) by the Others. She was raised among them, believing her mother to be dead.

She has helped the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815 on many occasions, and is reunited with her mother at the end of the third season. Not long after however, she is shot and killed by Keamy (Kevin Durand) after her adoptive father, Ben (Michael Emerson), would not listen to his demands. Her death scene was received positively by critics, earning it a spot on multiple "top moments of the season" lists (see Reception).

A heavily pregnant Danielle Rousseau and her husband Robert shipwreck on the island, 16 years before the crash of Oceanic Flight 815, during a French scientific expedition. Rousseau's team becomes sick, so she kills them all, and later gives birth to Alexandra. Rousseau claims she saw a column of black smoke on the island a week later.

That night, Benjamin Linus and a young Ethan Rom (William Mapother) are ordered by Charles Widmore (Alan Dale) to kill Danielle and, subsequently, her baby daughter, Alex. Instead, presumably incapable to leave Alex motherless (as he had been) or to kill an innocent child, Ben neglected Widmore's orders and kidnapped Alex to raise her as his daughter. Sixteen years later, Alex meets the pregnant woman Claire Littleton (Emilie de Ravin), whom the Other, Ethan Rom, had kidnapped to take her baby.

Alex tells her that the Others will kill Claire once they get her baby. She knocks Claire unconscious and leaves her in the jungle to find her way safely back to her camp.
