Elizandro

Meaning of Elizandro

Elizandro is a masculine given name of Spanish provenance, etymologically traceable to the Greek components alexo (“to defend”) and aner (“man”), and morphologically aligned with the Spanish form Alejandro through an orthographic adaptation that simultaneously introduces the Hebrew element Eli (“my God”). As such, the name conveys a dual semantic register of protective strength and divine allegiance, rendering it particularly resonant for families seeking both classical gravitas and theological nuance. Within Spanish‐speaking societies, Elizandro occupies a specialised niche as a variant that balances time-honoured onomastic tradition with a distinctive phonetic profile, and in the United States it has sustained a modest yet stable frequency in national birth records. Its associations with leadership, fortitude and spiritual fidelity make Elizandro an especially fitting choice for parents wishing to invest their son’s identity with enduring cultural depth and transcultural relevance.
