Alexandra Boiger: Hello. My name is Alexandra Boiger. Boiger is a name from Germany. I am originally from Munich. My first name, I have thanks to my older sister Margaret. I'm the youngest of 7 siblings. When my sister Margaret knew that my mom was expecting another baby, which was me at the time, she was at first not very happy that there would be one more in the house. My mom, to console her, told her that she can choose the name for the new baby and she chose Alexandra. And it's a name that I always liked. I found out about this only a month ago when one of my other sisters told me that story and now when I go next time to visit my family in Germany, I can finally thank my older sister for it.
