Your first name, ALEXA, or your surname, WHITTAKER?
If your first, click on "ALEXA" (in this post) and you can begin your research.
If the latter, WHITTAKER is a variation of http://surnames.behindthename.com/name/whitaker
For extra credit, I like to interpret first & middle names together. Often, they will give each other a new, or more-specific, context.
Example:
My own first name is LAWRENCE, meaning "winner of an athletic event." [Lat. "laurel-crowned"]
My middle name, ARLEN, means "devotee, advocate." [Irish Gaelic "gage, pledge"]
"Prevailing" x "advocate" = "champion"
