Alejandro
Alejandro is a masculine given name, the Spanish form of the English name Alexander, derived from the Latin Alexander and the Ancient Greek Aléxandros (Αλέξανδρος), meaning "defender of man". The name Alexandro (now an archaic form) was the primary rendition in Spanish. However, the transition from Alexandro to Alejandro resulted from specific phonetic and orthographic adaptations in the Spanish language, whereby the letter "x" was replaced by "j" to conform to the language's phonological and orthographic conventions.
Intriguingly, archaic forms such as Alexandro, Aleixandre, or Alexandre persist in certain Spanish-speaking regions (notably in Galicia or within literary contexts), though they are rare and significantly less prevalent than Alejandro. In Spanish culture, the name Alejandro is associated with patronymic surnames such as Aleixandre (which also serves as an archaic form of the given name) and, most notably, Alejándrez (as Juan Manuel Alejándrez).
The name Alejandro manifests in various forms across different linguistic traditions, including Alexandre (French, Portuguese, Catalan, and Galician), Alessandro (Italian), Alexandru (Romanian), Aleksandr (Russian), among others.
