Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Alessio je talianska podoba gréckeho mena Alexios (Ἀλέξιος), sprostredkovaná latinskou podobou Alexius. Základ súvisí s gréckym slovesom aléxō (ἀλέξω), ktoré znamená „brániť, ochraňovať“. Význam mena sa vykladá ako „ochranca, obranca“; latinčina predstavuje sprostredkujúci jazyk, nie samostatný etymologický pôvod.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Etymológia, medzinárodné podoby a talianske domácke Ale: Treccani – Alessio. Kresťanská tradícia: Treccani – Alèssio. Výslovnosť a tri slabiky: Dizionario italiano Olivetti. Skloňovanie je analogické uplatnenie slovenského vzoru chlap s vypustením koncového -o; nejde o overené osobitné stanovisko JÚĽŠ SAV k tomuto menu. Konkrétne heslo v monografii Milana Majtána nebolo overené. Štyri až sedem zaužívaných slovenských zdrobnenín sa nepodarilo doložiť, preto je uvedené iba doložené talianske Ale.
