Meaning and history
Alexandrine is a French and German feminine form of Alexander. The underlying Greek name Alexandros combines alexein, “to defend,” with anēr, “man,” producing the traditional meaning “defender of men.” Feminine forms became especially visible among European royal and aristocratic families. Historical bearers include Alexandrine of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, queen consort of Denmark, and Princess Alexandrine of Prussia. The ending reflects French and continental European feminine-name formation.
