Sandrine is not an elaboration. It is actually a short form of Alexandrine (itself a diminutive of Alexandra) as well as a diminutive of Sandra (f) and Sandre (unisex), since it contains the French feminine diminutive suffix -ine:

(in English)
The masculine equivalent is Sandrin, which as you can now guess, is a short form of Alexandrin (m) as well as a diminutive of Sandre (unisex).
