"only Grand Duke to bear the name and patronymic of a Tsar" claim

The source cited says he's the only Russian Grand Duke to bear the name and patronymic of a Tsar, but even at the time of his birth, wouldn't Grand Duke Alexander Alexandrovich have already claimed this title, even with his own early death? Baby Alexander died before his father became Tsar, but both of them shared the name and patronymic of Alexander Alexandrovich. Bit confused by this claim.
