Defender of mankind
Sandrea is a rare elaboration of Sandra, which is itself a diminutive of Alexandra. It ultimately derives from the Greek name Alexandros, combining 'alexein' (to defend) and 'aner' (man). While it follows the pattern of names like Andrea or Sandra, it remains a distinctive and uncommon choice in the United States.
