Best Answer

He founded over 70 city-states to induct the conquered peoples to his definition of civilised living, and wanted to give them Greek-related names. Half he named after himself, not being overly modest. The rest he named after friends, and one even after his horse Beucephalus. He was self-centred and erratic, but had the underlying purpose of civilising his new empire according to his lights.

I think you should change your name to Alex because Alex is such a bold and strong name a lot of strong and great people were named Alex like Alexander The Great, Alexander Ovechkin, Alexander Hamilton, Alexander Rodriguez and Alexander Graham Bell (Invented the telephone). That is why I think you should change your name to Alex. Thank you.
