The meaning of Alexander, "defender of men," reflects qualities of leadership, strength, and protection, traits that were embodied by those who bore the name in antiquity.

The name has remained popular throughout history, often associated with nobility and military prowess, and continues to be widely used in various forms around the world today.
The last name "Richards" is of English origin, derived from the given name "Richard," which itself comes from the Old High German name "Ricohard," meaning "powerful leader" or "brave ruler." The surname first appeared in England during the medieval period, particularly in the 12th century, as a patronymic surname indicating "son of Richard." Historically, those who bore the name were often associated with nobility or landownership, reflecting the characteristics of strength and leadership inherent in the name's meaning. Variations of the surname can be found in different cultures and languages, including "Richardson" (common in Scotland and Northern England), "Ricardo" in Spanish-speaking countries, and "Rikards" in some Eastern European regions.
