Ἀλέξανδρος

Etymology
From + the stem  of, thus “the man who repels [enemies]”. The 🇨🇬 (attested in the 13th century ) seems to have been borrowed from an equivalent name in an ancestor language of Ancient Greek or some related dialect, perhaps. A Linear B name, 🇨🇬, seemingly corresponding to the feminine form 🇨🇬, is the earliest attested form of the name.

Proper noun

 * 1) A title held by Hera and Paris, among others.
 * , most famously held by Alexander the Great
