Re: Alexandra
I adore this name, and it’s our #1 choice if we ever have another girl. I do worry that it’s not “special” enough to match with Theodora, but I almost don’t care because it’s a family name. My grandpa was Alexander nn Sandy, my mom is Sandra nn Sandy, and I have cousins named Alyx and Sandy.

Alexandra may be more familiar than Theodora, but historically and linguistically they are perfect together! You should do it!

Hi !!!I find an hypotetical combo Theodora and Alexandra extremely beautiful, elegant and regal.Alexandra became so plain that it could work only with few names in my opinion. Theodora is one of these names as they share the Ancient Greek origin but also the regal history as Theodora was the name of a lot of Byzanthine queens and princesses and Alexandra is a classic among all European royal families.So..don't worry!
It would be a great combo!
