My husbands name is Alexander. Of course everyone calls him Alex but the name suits him to a "T". He is a very strong, determined individual and sometimes comes off a little too strong but has a wonderful heart. He's always willing to go the extra mile for somebody.

You know i was just looking at what the meaning of my name was and then i saw all of your nasty comments and so i made an acount straight away!, most people woundn't do that, Most of those people probly dont have my name ( Alex )Which means what again??
A defender of mankind.
