Name of the week...
According to Nameberry.com, the Greek name, Alexander, has been in the top 25 since 1991, with popular spinoff versions such as Alex, Zander, Xan and Zan. Interestingly, in Gaelic, the name became Alasdair; in Spain, Alejandro; and in Italy, Alessandro. I wonder how many people who named their son Alexander, also chose "the great" as a middle name. Come on, you know someone couldn't help themselves! 😉
