Alandra has a friendly, singsong quality that feels both fresh and timeless. Pronounced uh-LAN-druh, it likely sprang from the classic Alexandra (“defender of mankind”) while borrowing the lighthearted spirit of the Spanish alondra, or “lark,” so it carries echoes of strength and song in equal measure. Though pleasantly rare—hovering around the 900th spot in U.S. baby‐name charts over the past decade—Alandra manages to strike a perfect balance between individuality and approachability. Choosing Alandra is like giving your daughter a name that dances off the tongue, promising gentle confidence, bright beginnings, and the freedom to chart her own melody in the world.
