Aleric is a unique and distinctive given name of Germanic origin, derived from the Old High German elements 'adal' meaning noble and 'hari' meaning army or warrior. This name was popular among the Merovingian dynasty in early medieval France, notably borne by Alaric I, the first king of the Visigoths.
"Aleric has seen fluctuations in its popularity over the years, with peak years being 2003 and 2021 at 11 births each, and lowest points in 2017 and 2018 with only 6 and 5 births respectively. The total number of babies named Aleric from 1997 to 2023 is 197."
