Hi
There are heaps of websites with baby names, you can look yours up. One that I know of is http://babyzone.com/ (US), but I'm sure there are local ones as well, just google "baby names". I do know that Xander is a form of Alexander, but I can't give you the meaning. If I remember my bible story correctly, Jacob means "heel grasper" (I think ! :confused: ), as he was the second born twin, born holding the right(?) heel of his brother.

Cheers

Jacob means: 'Supplanter' (?!), and is a biblical name
Xander means: 'Defender of men' or 'Warrior' and is a varient of Alexander (like Xkwzit said!)

According to http://www.allthebabynames.com :

Jacob means 'that supplants, undermines, the heel'
Xander means 'protector of mankind'
