Alaric (plural Alarics)

  1. A historic king of the Visigoths.
  2. (rare) A male given name from Gothic.
    • 1835 June, Fraser's Magazine, volume XI, page 652:
      We feel bound to add, however, that it is not very likely, in the usual chances of events, that such names as Alaric Attila Watts should have met in matrimony with those of Zillah Madonna Wiffen; and an unkind world may suggest a mystification somewhere.
