Alexandria

This feminine form of Alexander is of Greek origin. Alexander the Great, a Macedonian king, gave the name to several cities in his empire, so it's natural that babies were eventually given the name too. Will baby be a powerhouse of knowledge like the Great Library of Alexandria? Closer to home, your daughter would share a name with US cities named Alexandria, including those in Virginia, Louisiana and Kentucky. This strong name landed on US baby-name charts in the late 1960s and is still popular.
