Lysander is a distinctive Greek name that could be thought of as a more creative cousin of Alexander. In ancient history, Lysander was the name of an esteemed Spartan naval commander and his literary cred comes from one of the two star-struck young men in Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, as well as one of the twin sons (the other being Lorcan) of Luna Lovegood, whom we learn about in the Harry Potter epilogue.

This name is the feminization of mythological name Lysander, which is best known to English-speakers as a character in Shakespeare's comedy A Midsummer Night's Dream.

With the woodsy, Shakespearean vibes of the original Lysander, but with the flair and familiarity of Alessandro, Lorenzo, and Orlando too, Lisandro might feel more wearable than the original Greek name.

A more distinctive alternative to Alejandro.

This grand name combines "lysis" (freedom) and "andros" (man). Lysander is a related, and more recognizable, variation.
