"Alessandro di Mariano Filipepi was born around 1445 in Florence, Italy to Mariano di Vanni dei Filipepi(a tanner) and his wife, Smeralda."

Sandro Botticelli was a nickname that he took. Sandro was short for Alessandro, and Botticelli is derived from Botticello("little barrel") which was his brother's nickname.
