The name Alisander is a boy's name of English, Greek origin meaning "defending men".

Sleek and poetic, Alisander is a Medieval form of Alexander, notably appearing in Thomas Malory's <em>Le Morte d'Arthur</em>. An appealing choice to those who like the strength of Alexander, the literary feel of Lysander, and the sounds of Alistair and Cassander, it gets bonus points for also being a botanical name for boys. Used as a common name for the plant Smyrnium olusatrum, it has never appeared in the US stats.
