What is the meaning of the name Alejandrine ?

The baby name Alejandrine is a Female name , 5 syllables long and is pronounced /a.le.xanˈdɾi.ne/ (ah-leh-hahn-DREE-neh).

Alejandrine is Greek in Origin.

Alejandrine is a rare feminine form related to Spanish Alejandra/Alejandrina and French Alexandrine, ultimately tracing to Greek Alexandros, from alexein “to defend” + anēr/andros “man,” hence “defender (protector) of mankind.” The spelling blends the Spanish stem Alejandr- with the French -ine ending, giving it a cultured, pan-Romance flavor.

Use is sporadic in Spain and Latin America and occasionally appears in Francophone contexts, where it also echoes the term alexandrine for the classic 12-syllable poetic line. The broader name family has deep roots via Hellenistic rulers, early Christian martyrs, and royal houses that popularized Alexandra. Close variants include Alejandrina, Alejandra, Alexandrine, Alexandra, Alessandra, Alessandrina, Aleksandra, and Sandrine; short forms and nicknames range from Ale and Andri/Andrine to Sandra, Sandy, Lexa, and Sasha. Alejandrine offers a distinctive, continental twist while keeping the strong, timeless meaning.
