Alfy Origin and Meaning

The name Alfy is a girl's name.

Alfy is a feminine name that typically functions as a diminutive form of Alfred or Alphonsine, though it occasionally stands as an independent given name. With Germanic origins, Alfred means 'elf counsel' or 'wise elf,' combining the elements 'alf' (elf) and 'ræd' (counsel). As a feminine name, Alfy offers a playful, affectionate quality while maintaining connections to these traditional roots. This cheerful, compact name has never been widely popular but appears occasionally throughout English-speaking countries. In some contexts, it may also serve as a nickname for names beginning with 'Al' such as Alison or Alberta. Alfy appeals to parents drawn to vintage nickname-names with a friendly, unpretentious character and subtle fairy-tale associations.
