Nicholas Alexander (Romanian: Nicolae Alexandru c. 1300 – 16th November 1364) was the second Voivode of Wallachia. His birthdate is uncertain, although according to popular theory he was born around the turn of the 14th century. He co-ruled the principality with his father Basarab from 1344 until his father's death in 1351 or 1352; he then ruled alone until his death in 1364. He is best known for facilitating the founding of the Metropolis of Ungro-Wallachia.
