Saunder
sa(un)-der
Origin:Greek
Meaning:Defender of men
Saunder is a name for boys borrowed from Sander. Rooted in Greek, it’s considered a derivative of Alexander, whose historic namesakes have given it a glorious definition of “defender of men.” There are many Saunders in the world, and given that it’s such a popular surname, too, it’s no surprise that it’s quite common in the UK and US. No stress if you know your little Saunder is the only one for you, though!
