Alistair
Alistair is a male given name. It is an
anglicised form of the Scottish Gaelic ''
Alasdair''. The latter is most likely a
Scottish Gaelic variant of the Norman French
Alexandre or Latin Alexander, which was incorporated into English in the same form as
Alexander. The deepest etymology is the Greek
Ἀλέξανδρος (man-repeller): ἀλέξω (repel) + ἀνήρ (man), "the one who repels men", a warrior name. Another, not nearly so common, Anglicization of ''Alasdair'' is ''Allaster''.
