Aleksandrine is Greek in Origin.

Aleksandrine is a Scandinavian- and Slavic-influenced form of Alexandrine, the feminine elaboration of Alexander, from Greek Alexandros (aléxein “to defend” + anḗr/andros “man”). It therefore carries the time‑honored meaning “defender of men” or more inclusively “protector of humankind.” The k spelling reflects the ks sound of x and mirrors Nordic and East‑European conventions.

Used sporadically across northern Europe in the 19th and early 20th centuries, the name sits within a wider pan‑European family that flourished in courts and literary circles; in Scandinavia its visibility was buoyed by Queen Alexandrine of Denmark, though the royal spelling lacked the k. Today Aleksandrine is rare but distinctive, blending antique polish with a crisp modern look. Close variants include Alexandrine, Alexandrina, Aleksandrina, Alexandra, and Aleksandra. Short forms and pet names include Sandra, Sandrine, Sandi, Rina, Lexa/Lexi, Andrine, and Drina.
