Hi happy Mom, I prefer Alexander jon David, here the information about that great name :
ALEXANDER
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, German, Dutch, Hungarian, Slovak
Pronounced: al-eg-ZAN-dur [key]
From the Greek name Αλεξανδρος (Alexandros), which meant "defending men" from Greek αλεξω (alexo) "to defend, help" and ανηρ (aner) "man" (genitive ανδρος (andros)). Alexander the Great, King of Macedon, is the most famous bearer of this name. In the 4th century BC he built a huge empire out of Greece, Egypt, Persia, and parts of India. This was also the name of emperors of Russia, kings of Scotland and Yugoslavia, and eight popes. Also, Sir Alexander MacKenzie was an explorer of the north and west of Canada in the 18th century.
JON (1)
Gender: Masculine
Usage: Scandinavian, Basque
Scandinavian and Basque form of JOHN
JOHN
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, Biblical
Pronounced: JAHN [key]
English form of Iohannes, which was the Latin form of the Greek name Ιωαννης (Ioannes), itself derived from the Hebrew name יוֹחָנָן (Yochanan) meaning "YAHWEH is gracious". This name owes its consistent popularity to two New Testament characters, both highly revered as saints. The first was John the Baptist, the forerunner of Jesus Christ and a victim of beheading by Herod Antipas. The second was the apostle John, also supposedly the author of the fourth Gospel and Revelation. The name has been borne by 23 popes, as well as kings of England, Hungary, Poland, Portugal and France. It was also borne by the poet John Milton and the philosopher John Locke
DAVID
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, Jewish, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Czech, Slovene, Biblical
Other Scripts: דָוִד (Hebrew), Давид (Russian)
Pronounced: DAY-vid (English), da-VEED (French) [key]
Possibly derived from Hebrew דוד (dvd) meaning "beloved". David was the second and greatest of the kings of Israel, ruling in the 10th century BC. Several stories about him are told in the Old Testament, including his defeat of Goliath, a giant Philistine. Jesus was supposedly descended from him. Other famous bearers of this name include the 5th-century patron saint of Wales, two kings of Scotland, empiricist philosopher David Hume, and explorer David Livingstone. This is also the name of the hero of Charles Dickens' semiautobiographical novel 'David Copperfield'.
Hopefully I can help you, happy choosing and take care....

Would david be the last name? If not I think is sounds better Alexander Jon David because I think it is cute when you can call your child a two letter name. For example, Alexander Jon= AJ. By the way, congrats on your new son. May god bless you and your new bundle of joy.
