Ateşcan 

Share definition Flag
Ateşcan is a male name and is of Turkish origin.
A Ateşcan is extremely special, it's a very rare name and not in everyone's fortune to be an Ateşcan.

Ateşcan tend to be very built, taned, dark haired handsome people, not necessarily a model level but their irresistible charm and sharp looks always gives them an edge.
Ateşcans also tend to have what is known as "The Devil's Luck" or "Lucifer's Feather", meaning that they are always able to get their way and have the ability get out of any situation on top. They are very good with their words and are very good at talking; one can go as far as saying that they are "Wordsmiths"

They are known to have a strong sense determination, ambition and sense of justice and have a clear view on what's right and wrong. However they are sometimes known to have a bit of an ego, but this ego does not affect anyone around them negatively, because Ateşcans tend to be always respectful, responsible gentlemen to everyone around them.

Nevertheless, this does not mean you should get on to the bad side of any Ateşcan, because long story, all Ateşcans have a sleeping lion within them...

In literal translation from Turkish; "Ateş" means fire and "Can" means life or soul.

So quite simply, everyone wants to be an Ateşcan, or at least, have an Ateşcan in their lives, because like their name, they have the "fire" within their spirit, but also brings the "life" and enjoyment with their presence....

Alescandro 

Share definition Flag
A bastardization of the name Alejandro. It's a name to give to any hispanic person that embodies any Mexican stereotypes, or just anyone who smells like menudo. However, this cannot be thrown around lightly. It must become the person's name. It's not a term, it's a name. It must be pronounced "Al - ee - skon - drow", as opposed to a correct Spanish pronunciation.
