Styles vary, with some styles adding apostrophe S (e.g. Chris's or Jones's), especially where both the existing and the new S are sounded (sounds like the plurals Chrises and Joneses).
Others, notably the AP Style Guide, use only an apostrophe (e.g. Thomas' or Bliss') but still add the pronunciation as another S sound.

There are two accepted forms for possessive singular nouns that end with an s:Add an apostrophe (') after the existing s at the end of the word:Jones'Add an apostrophe s ('s) after the existing s at the end of the word:Jones'sExamples:The meeting is in Mr. Jones' office.The meeting is in Mr. Jones's office.
The difference is that only Alexis's is correct. The possessive singular of all English nouns, regardless of spelling, is formed by the addition of -'s. Singular possessives sound as if they were plurals. In the case of singular nouns already ending in -s, the possessive gains a syllable just as the plural does (compare fox / fox's: fox / foxes). Some believe and even teach (!) that the plural form is correct for singulars, but they are wrong. The proof is in the pronunciation. Since the apostrophe has no sound, Alexis' has the same number of syllables that Alexis has, and therefor it cannot be the correct possessive.
