The Story of Alexzander
Alexzander is an alternate spelling of Alexander, derived from the Greek Alexandros composed of alexein (to defend) and aner/andros (man), meaning defender of men or protector of the people. Alexander the Great (356 BCE to 323 BCE) spread this name across three continents during his conquests, making it one of the most widely distributed names in world history.
Alexander has been one of the most consistently popular names in the Western world for centuries, and Alexzander offers parents who love the name a way to make it visually distinctive. The Z spelling sets it apart while maintaining the powerful legacy of one of historys greatest names.
Alexander the Greats legacy spans Greek, Persian, Egyptian, and Indian cultures—he founded over 20 cities named Alexandria. The name has been borne by three Scottish kings, eight Byzantine emperors, three Russian tsars, and countless saints and popes.
