Meaning and history
Alexina is a French and English feminine diminutive of Alexandra or Alexia. Both belong to the Greek name family based on alexein, “to defend” or “help”; Alexandra is conventionally interpreted as “defender of men.” The suffix -ina gives the name an affectionate or elaborated form without changing its root. Notable bearers include Scottish physician and feminist Alexina McKay, who campaigned for women’s medical education, and English fashion model Alexina Graham.
