Lysandro is Greek in Origin.
Lysandro is a Romance adaptation of the Ancient Greek name Lysandros (Λύσανδρος), source of English Lysander. Built from lyein “to loosen, release” and anēr/andros “man,” it means “liberator of men” or “the one who frees.” The spelling with y mirrors the Greek upsilon and is rarer than the parallel Lisandro common in Iberian and Latin American contexts.
Documented via the fame of the Spartan commander Lysander (5th c. BCE) and revived in Renaissance humanist circles, the name later filtered into Spanish and Italian onomastics, where Sandro and, less commonly, Lys, can serve as nicknames. Principal variants include Lysander (English), Lysandre (French), Lisandro (Spanish/Italian/Portuguese), and the Greek Lysandros; feminine analogues appear as Lysandra/Lisandra. Usage today is modest but rising in the Hispanic world and among families seeking a classical yet flexible choice that bridges cultures.
