History & Origin
Zandrea takes the tail of Alexandrea or Andrea and fronts it with a striking Z, a common late-century way to spin a fresh name from a classical one. Both parent names carry the Greek sense of a strong defender of the people.
The name had a quiet run around the turn of the millennium, cresting in the early two-thousands. Given to only about twenty girls a year, a Zandrea from that peak is now in her twenties.
