Origin

History: The name was probably coined originally as a title of the goddess Hera, consort of Zeus. Alexander the Great (356-323 BC) conquered and ruled the greater part of the known world before his death at the age of 33. History describes him as a man of high physical courage, impulsive energy, and fervid imagination. He created one of the largest empires in ancient history. It is an example of the widespread motif of Greek names expressing battle-prowess, in this case the ability to withstand or push back an enemy battle line.

Usage: English, German, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Icelandic, Hungarian, Slovak, Ancient Greek (Latinized).
