Origin:Greek
Other Origin(s):Spanish, Italian
Meaning:Defender of men
Sandero is a masculine name that has much in common with Alex, Xander, and Sander. All four of these titles are shortened forms of Alexander, a Greek moniker meaning "defender of men." Though Sander itself is a Scandinavian creation, Sandero's -o ending gives it a Spanish and Italian flair. If you hope to teach your little one to be a helpful and supportive pal, naming them Sandero could be a great place to start.
