Xander

• When I first heard the name on Buffy, I just fell in love with it. It's also the name of the Vin Diesel character in the "XXX" movie.
• When I saw this name for the first time I fell in love with it. It's very creative and I love the meaning too. It's a shorten version of Alexander and it means "helper of humankind".
• It is pretty unusual and really cool, and the X makes it even more so. Not many names start with the letter X. It is also masculine and mysterious. A great name!
• an unusual form of a classic name, Alexander (which is my brother's name, though I hesitate to sound like a third-grader).
• Xander Angelus: I originally liked Alexander, but I thought Xander sounded better with Angelus. Xander sounds cool, and new to me. Not as used as Alexander, I think. Angelus I did get from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Angel. The name sounds very religious to me, and powerful. I just love the combination of these two names.
• Xander Blaize is the name we are giving our son to be born in a few weeks.  I think it is a very masculine, strong and noble name as well as different.  We really favor unusual names.  We liked the name Xander from the movie xXx (aka Triple X) because it means "defender/protector" and we thought Blaize was a fitting middle name as it means "flame of God".   With our last name of Irby, there is a very good chance he will be the only Xander Blaize Irby to walk the earth and we like that.
• Xander Harrison: first fell in luv with Xander when i heard it on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and thought that Harrison flowed well with it ! there is also an island in scotland called Harris.
• Xander Rylan: Xander after the character on buffy. He's a sweet, caring, goofy guy. Rylan is just a cute twist to the overused Ryan.
