Alexander the Great came to Jerusalem, during his conquests of the Middle East around 332 BC. He was shown by the high priest the book of Daniel where, 200 years earlier, the angel Gabriel told of the coming of the Greeks and "their first king" was specifically mentioned. Alexander recognized that the prophecy was about him and instead of plundering Jerusalem, asked what he could do for the Jewish people.

Alexander the Great conquers the Persian Empire and most of the known world, and comes to the land of Israel at about 325 B.C.E.  He meets Simon the righteous, and is so impressed that he spares Jerusalem and the Temple.

The Jewish people remember Alexander and make a commitment that all the first born male children born during that year would be named after him. This is how the name becomes a common name in Jewish families.
