Alexey is a charming variant of Alexei, the Russian form of Alexius. This distinguished moniker was popular amongst Russian royalty, from Alexei Mikhailovich, the 17th-century ruler, to Alexei Nikolaevich, the last heir apparent to the Russian Empire. As a unique twist on Alexander, Alexey stems from the Greek alexo, meaning "to defend" or "to help." As such, Alexey translates to "man's defender" or "warrior," making it a rather brave choice for your little one.
