Origin and development of the name

Sander, and Alexander is the Germanized form of the Greek name Aléxandros ( as much as: The the [ foreign ] Men wards, in a figurative sense: The Protector ). The name is already attested around 1280 BC by the Bronze Age king of Wilusa Alaksandu. Inclusion in the German name world he found less by the ecclesiastical name ( cf. Pope Alexander III. ), But since about 1140 through the medieval Alexander songs and Alexander novels that Alexander praise the Great and in the Middle Ages after the Bible to the most common fonts included. This antique oriental conquerors had moved with the Crusades to the East since 1096 back into the field of view of the West, and his name became popular in the first reading of the powerful aristocratic circles. The short form Sander has become much more common than Alexander or Alex manifests as a family name. The reason is that the German Alexánder ( [ a.lɛk.zan.dɐ ] ) emphasizes unlike in Greek on the third syllable, which favored the separation from the original and the re-creation of the ( linguistically meaningless ) short form. It can be concluded that Sander was when first name already in the Middle Ages by far more common than the original form such as in the 1285 mentioned in Rostock Sander Swarenpenning. The Polish spelling Aleksander leaves the rest nor the syllable boundary recognize, as testified in 1229 Alexsander (!), Mayor of Wroclaw.

The name Zander ( especially in northern and eastern Germany, in the Rhine- Ruhr region and partly by immigration from Mecklenburg- Vorpommern in southern Sweden), Xander (rare, see Brigitte Xander, actually Ksander ) and Tschander are regional variations and in the same way and how, for example. Unlike many other family name Sander and Zander were extremely stable passed on through the centuries. Change from Sander on Zander and vice versa are only a few known. Because of the Niederrhein ( Krefeld / Viersen / Mönchengladbach ) conventional shift - other to - be prevailed there before the variants Zanger ( s ) and Sanger, of which only the form Zanger has received. A rare variant is the slurred form Sanner. The forms of the name Sanders, Zanders, Sandersen, Sanderson (English), Sands Ring ( Low German ) are patronymics and mean as much as Sanders son or servant Sanders etc. Sanderling (see Kurt Sanderling ) is a diminutive of Sander. The rare name Santer ( cf. Jacques Santer ), a variant of Sander be, but is probably borrowed from the Latin word sanctus more.

In England, mainly the patronymen forms Sanders and Saunders have emerged as a family name.

Other possible interpretations for the family name

The surname Sander can also be interpreted as origin or dwelling place name refers to one of the many place and field names sand, on the sand, or the like, or a dwelling on sandy terrain. A Sander is therefore someone who was a resident at one of these locations or corridors. However, this is far less important for the formation of names as the previously discussed personal names have been also reflected in the compared to Sander much less common surnames sand ( t) and tar sands, which are directly related to a place of this name. From such a sandy terrain testify, for example, the East Frisian place names Großsander, Small Sander, Ostersander and Wester Sander, Sander forest of pine trees or the Sanderglacisstrasse in Würzburg. The name Sandner ' " derives also from the corresponding place names.

The fish pike perch, called to the early 20th century, preferably Sander is likely to have little part in the naming in the sense of an name for a fisherman who mainly catches this fish. The fish names Sander and walleye have become established until the 16th century, when the formation of the family name was essentially complete. A derivation of sand Mr ( overseer of a sand pit ) or even Mr. Sang ( cantor ) is also conceivable only in individual cases.

The landform Sander is a resulting only in the 19th century creation of language (of isländ. Outwash ) and therefore qualifies for the family name formation is not considered.

From Sander derived place names

Place names, which include the persons name Sander, Sander are living in Anhalt, United Santersleben and small Santersleben near Magdeburg, Sander village near Bitterfeld, another Sander village in Franconia, and Sandershausen near Kassel. They probably originated from individual farms, which are due to a man named Sander or a similar sounding name. Sander life and the two Santersleben are the oldest of these places. They blend from Sanders and the Germanic word live ( v. gothic laiba = heritage, legacy, property) together. Sander life thus means as much as heir to the Sander or possession of the sander. From the village of Klein Santersleben comes the still existing noble family of Sander life. A noble family of Sander in Silesia, also called Sander Sander Hausen, was once the city Reichenbach in Upper Lusatia.

Age, however, these places reveals a problem that is contrary to the outlined above derivation of Alexander and to examine historical linguistic still is. Sandersleben was the first time in 1046 and Santersleben the first time in 1013 mentioned as Groten Sander Love. Onomastisch the origin of this name is, however, already be dated to the 2nd to 4th century AD. The name Sander (or similar) it seems therefore to have been prior to the Christianization of the Germanic tribes. Witnessed the hochaltertümlichen Germanic personal name Sand Heri are ( Frisian ), Sandrih, Sandmar, Sands Bold, Sandolt, Sandarat, sand Ebert and ( Old Prussian ) Sandar - er,- ir, with the short forms Sando, Sands, Santo, etc. ( to Indo-European sanpas, Old Norse sannr, Danish sand = " true, the true, the rights "). the old Germanic names go for the direct family name Education Sander hardly considered since they first originated in the Middle Ages, as a surname, long been out of use. for the formation of these place names let them however use and may be fitted this only subsequently to the common name later Sander. this is true at least for Sandershausen 1167 first mentioned as sand Council Husen, too. in the founded at 1150/60 Sander village near Bitterfeld, however, is a derivation of the new name Sander assumed.
