Origen y significado de Alfonso

Alfonso is of Germanic (Visigothic) origin, from elements joining the idea of 'noble' to that of 'ready, valiant in battle.' It is the name of many kings of Spain, among them Alfonso X the Wise, an enlightened ruler and patron of learning. Very common in Spain and southern Italy, it appears as Afonso in Portugal and Alphonse in France. With its noble, resonant sound, it evokes regal dignity and strength of spirit — a name of ancient tradition and great prestige.
