Comments for the name Alfred

Alfred Hitchcock was a famous bearer.

Alfred Hitchcock disliked being called Alfred, and asked all his actors to call him Hitch.

I always think of Jude Law's character Alfie. Very hot!

Famous bearer is Alfred Nobel, a Swedish chemist and engineer. He was the inventor of dynamite and advocator of the Nobel Prizes.

Alfred Matthew "Weird Al" Yankovic is easily the best known of all novelty singers. He writes parodies of popular songs and composes silly original tunes, most of which are accompanied by, among other instruments, his accordion. Weird Al got his start on the Dr. Demento Show, a radio program devoted to odd songs, and since 1983, he has released twelve albums. He also had his own television show (creatively titled "The Weird Al Show") on CBS from 1997 to 1998, and starred in the cult classic film UHF in 1989.

A famous bearer is the actor Alfred Molina from Spiderman 2 and the Da Vinci Code.

Alfred is the worst name you could get, in my opinion:
There's that nasty song about a nerd called Al. While it's very funny, it doesn't leave you a good impression. Then there's that mean nickname Alfredo. And last, it sounds bad.

Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809-1892), English poet often regarded as the chief representative of the Victorian age in poetry.

This name is growing on me. Like Arthur, it feels more and more noble as I think about its royal beginnings.

What comes to mind is the MAD guy: ''What, me worry?''. I don't like this old-fashioned name, and I hate the nicknames Alf and Alfie. I loathe Fred as well, so there aren't really any redeeming factors to this name.

Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce Wayne's (aka Batman's) butler, confidant and father figure, is a famous owner of this beautiful and strong name.

Alfred Enoch portrays Dean Thomas, Gryffindor, in the Harry Potter films.

Alfred Bester is an antagonist in twelve episodes of Babylon 5. Although, part of the time, he is on the "good" side, he is disliked/hated by the main characters of the show. He's a Psi Cop, a telepath who is dedicated to hunting down telepaths who have "gone rogue".

The character of Alfred Bester was named after the science fiction writer.

As a French name, it's for an old man only.

A famous bearer was Hawaiian signer Alfred Apaka (March 19, 1919 – January 30, 1960). He was one of the most noted interpreters of hapa-haole music, a type of music that combines traditional Hawaiian music with traditional pop music.

Technically, wouldn't Alfred mean 'peaceful noble'? Adal (noble) and frid (peace).

Alfred Ashford is an antagonist in the game Resident Evil Code: Veronica.

I usually think of "Alfred" the butler from the movie/tv show BATMAN. Alfred was the butler to "Bruce Wayne", aka "Batman". Batman was very rich and had a butler named Alfred, so that's one reason for me to like this name. Fred can be a good alternative to Al/Alfred.

This name seems to grow on me, as Albert and Arthur. Alfred can be cute and I like the nickname "Alfie".

Alfred F. Jones- or the U.S.A- in Hetalia is indeed a very famous bearer. :)

One of my guilty pleasure boys names. It could be made more modern with the nickname Alfie.

Alfred was the youngest son of King George III of the UK and his wife Charlotte. He died age 1.

I really like this name because it has a lot of history to it and sounds regal and imposing, but because of those same reasons, it seems like a lot for a kid to bear. It's hard to imagine this name on anyone younger than 40 for me.

Actor Alfred Lunt (1892-1977).

When I hear the name Alfred, I usually think of Alfred Hitchcock, Alfred from "Batman", and Alfred F. Jones from "Hetalia- Axis Powers".

This name is seriously adorable. I don't know why, but to me it just is. For a little boy, I think the nicknames Alfie or Freddie are more fitting and still cute, but overall Alfred is an awesome name! It has actual history to it too, unlike all these trendy, made up names.

This name has grown on me and now I quite like it. Although I don't like any of the nicknames for Alfred, it would be a good name for a boy of any age. This name brings to mind a strong, reliable guy.
