Which baby name do you prefer: Alfred or Wilfred?

Question

Two Old English names to choose from!

Answer 1

deeefinitely alfred

alfie is such a cute nickname as well for a little boy - and totally cool for a teenager (particularly among the sloane world...)

Answer 2

eather way that poor kid is going to get torcherd!!!! because of its name!!!

Answer 3

Sorry I don't like either.

Answer 4

Alfred, definitely. I like this name. My favourite uncle's name is Alfred (often shortened to Alfie), and he's never gotten any schtick about it, so I'm not sure why people think someone with this name would be 'torchered' (tortured). Unless someone decided to stick it on a little girl in hopes that it'll be unisex.

Answer 5

John

Answer 6

both would be good as a second name but i think i prefer wilfred purely because you can shorten it too will(very popular because of prince william),

Answer 7

Alfred, you could call him Alfie. :D.

Answer 8

Definitely Alfred!

Answer 10

Answer 11

Alfred - or Alfie - is now ubiquitous. It has no class or style to it any more.

So, Wilfred is a much better bet. It is a good name.

There are so many lists of baby names online - why not do more checking?
