In Anglo-Saxon England, the "ric" name element was pronounced like how most English-speakers pronounce "rich" today; so, this name would've been pronounced WULF-ritsh in its time (or WOOLF-ritsh), not WULF-rik as it would later be pronounced (coinciding with Anglo-Norman variant Ulric).

Wulfric (died circa 1004), called Wulfric Spot or Spott, was an Anglo-Saxon nobleman. His will is an important document from the reign of King Æthelred the Unready. Wulfric was a patron of the Burton Abbey, around which the modern town of Burton on Trent later grew up, and may have refounded the Benedictine monastery there. He was one of the three known children of the noblewoman Wulfrun, after whom the English town Wolverhampton is named.
Wulfric's byname, Spot, while it may have the same sense as in modern English, that is that it referred to some form of mark on his face, could also indicate a short, fat person. He is not called 'Spot' before the 13th century.

Wulfric is a great old English name and Wolfie is a really cute nickname too. It should definitely be used more often, what a marvelous name.

Wulfric is the name of a character in the book "World Without End" by Ken Follett.
I had never heard of this name before I read the book, and when I first saw the name I thought it was very strange. As I continued to read though, the name grew on me and I have come to quite like it. It's a very strong name that makes me think of a brave warrior.
