Sandrica Origin and Meaning

The name Sandrica is a girl's name.

Sandrica is a feminine name that appears to be a creative elaboration of Sandra, which itself is a shorter form of Alexandra, meaning 'defender of mankind' in Greek. The addition of the suffix '-ica' gives it a more elaborate, melodic quality while maintaining its connection to the more familiar Sandra. Sandrica has a rhythmic, three-syllable flow that sounds both familiar and distinctive. The name is quite uncommon in most English-speaking countries, making it an option for parents who want a name that's recognizable but unique. It carries a subtle Slavic or Italian flair due to the suffix pattern, potentially connecting to Eastern European or Mediterranean heritage while remaining accessible to English speakers.
