"defending men"

Alexa Origin and Meaning

The name Alexa is a girl's name of Greek origin meaning "defending men".

Alexa was a steadily popular modern classic until Amazon's virtual assistant Alexa was released in 2013. It remains relatively well used in the US despite this, though its standing keeps dropping for obvious reasons. Too bad, because it's a strong and pretty name (which is probably why Amazon used it.)
