Alarick Origin and Meaning

The name Alarick is a boy's name.

Alarick is a masculine name with strong Germanic roots, representing a variation of the classic Alaric. Historically significant, Alaric was the name of the Visigoth king who conquered Rome in 410 CE. The name combines the Germanic elements 'all' (all, whole) and 'ric' (ruler, king), literally meaning 'ruler of all' or 'all-powerful ruler.' The added 'k' gives this variant a more distinctive, modern edge while maintaining its ancient heritage. Though uncommon in mainstream usage, Alarick appeals to parents seeking a name with historical depth, strength, and a slightly unique spelling. It projects qualities of leadership, courage, and nobility.
