Alastriona is Irish in Origin.
Alastriona is the de-accented form of Alastríona, the Irish Gaelic feminine equivalent of Alexandra. The name ultimately traces to Greek Alexandros (alexo “to defend, help” + aner/andros “man”), yielding the meaning “defender of mankind.” Through medieval Latin and Norman French, Alexander spread widely; Irish adapted the masculine as Alastar and later formed the feminine Alastríona for use in Irish-language contexts.
Usage of Alastríona/Alastriona is modern but culturally rooted, gaining visibility during the Gaelic revival and appearing in 20th-century baptismal records, school rolls, and contemporary literature, though it remains uncommon and most familiar in Irish-speaking communities. Variants and related forms include Alexandra and Alexandria (English), Alessandra (Italian), Aleksandra (Slavic), and the Gaelic masculine counterparts Alastar (Irish) and Alasdair/Alastair (Scottish). Short forms often mirror international equivalents, Ali, Lexi, Sandra, while the diacritic-free Alastriona functions as an Anglicized spelling.
Alastriona is a genuine rarity. In all, it appears just 1 time, across 1 country.
