 There is one more myth there: ""the appellative (Skender) is assumed to have been a comparison between Skanderbeg's military skill to that of Alexander the Great."" But the name Skender should have been given to him when was child and was forcibly turcisised. Skender is a quranic name and used in many muslim countries. The biographers do not give us any other muslim name for G.Castrioti.  "
