Dexter was the name of a "host" on Australian dating show "Perfect Match" (1984-1989).Dexter was a "robot" that supposedly mathematically calculated the compatibility of the couple. He was voiced by Keith Scott.
A famous bearer is the title character, Dexter Morgan, from the Showtime series "Dexter", which is based on a series of books by author Jeff Lindsay. The character is a somewhat "moral" serial killer, but a sympathetic one. Dexter used to seem somewhat nerdy to me, but now I automatically think of Dexter Morgan (who's played by Michael C. Hall).
I see someone else mentioned the character Dexter from the show on Showtime. It's kind of interesting how the name means "skilled." Dexter on the show is a very "skilled" serial killer. I think the author chose this name for a symbolic purpose.
