Alexander the coppersmith ( Αλεξανδρος ο χαλκευς ). Old word, only here in N.T., for metal-worker (copper, iron, gold, etc.). Possibly the one in 1:20, but not the one in Ac 19:33f. unless he afterwards became a Christian.

Did me much evil ( μο κακα ενεδειξατο ). Evidently he had some personal dislike towards Paul and possibly also he was a Gnostic.

Will render ( αποδωσε ). Future active of the same verb used in verse 8, but with a very different atmosphere.
