Laquandra

Meaning of Laquandra

Laquandra is a feminine given name that first appeared in United States birth records in the early 1970s with fewer than ten occurrences, rising to a modest peak of around thirty births in the late 1980s and early 1990s before tapering off toward the turn of the millennium. Originating as a creative variant of Alexandra—a Greek-derived name meaning “defender of men”—it incorporates the La- prefix popularized in African American naming traditions to impart a modern sensibility. Pronounced luh-KWAN-druh (/ləˈkwɑːndrə/), Laquandra offers a balanced combination of classical roots and contemporary flair, appealing to parents who appreciate both heritage and individual expression.
