ALFRED m /AL-fred/ English, French
"elf counsel" from Old English ælf "elf" combined with ræd "counsel". Alfred the Great was a 9th-century king of Wessex who fought unceasingly against the Danes who lived in the northeast of England. He was also a scholar, and he translated many Latin books into Old English. His popularity helped to ensure the usage of this
name even after the Norman conquest (when most Old English names were replaced by Norman ones).
