Today we honor Alexandra. Všechno nejlepší k svátku! (All the best for your name day, Alexandra!)
Alexandra is of Greek origin, meaning "man's defender". It's the Latinate feminine form of Alexander. The name Alexandra was seldom used in the English-speaking world before the 20th century. It became very popular in Britain after the Prince of Wales (later Edward VII) married the Danish Princess Alexandra in 1863.
