ALEXANDER: (Hebrew אֲלֶכְּסַנְדֶר) Anglicized form of Latin Alexandrus (Greek Alexandros). This name derives from the Ancient Greek name “Aléxandros (Αλέξανδρος)”, composed of two elements: “aléxō (ἀλέξω)” (keep off, turn aside, guard, protect, defend, help) plus “anḗr (ἀνήρ) andrós (ἀνδρός)” (man “adult male”, husband). In turn, the name means “defending men, protector of men”. This definition is an example of the widespread motif of Greek (or Indo-European more generally) names expressing "battle prowess", in this case, the ability to withstand or push back an enemy battle line. The name was one of the titles, "epithets", given to the Greek goddess Hera and as such is usually taken to mean "one who comes to save warriors". The most famous linked to this root is Alexander the Great, who created one of the largest empires in ancient history.

Get the Alexandermug. They are usually video-game obssessed boys. You can not hold their attention for very long. They are tennis lovers, and always procrastinate.

Get the Alexandermug. A secretly (gay) straight male. Will drive you insane if you let him. Thinks he's the life of the party but is always hopelessly and completely bringing everyone down. Plays guitar (wellish) Likes drama more than your typical pre-teen middle schooler. Only brushes his teeth at night. If you let him close to you he'll never let you go.
