Alfonzo is Spanish in Origin.
Alfonzo is an Italianate and Hispanic spelling of Alfonso, ultimately from a Visigothic Germanic name (Adalfuns/Alfons) formed from adal “noble” + funs “eager/ready.” Through Latin Alfonsus, it moved into the Romance languages and English. The core meaning is “noble and ready,” sometimes interpreted as “ready for battle” or “nobly eager.”
The name flourished in medieval Iberia, borne by kings of León, Castile, and Aragon, and later reinforced in Catholic Europe by St. Alphonsus Liguori. Alfonzo as the z-spelling appears in Italian-American and Spanish-American communities in the United States, often overlapping with Alonzo/Alonso. International variants include Alfonso (Spanish, Italian), Afonso (Portuguese), Alfons (German, Dutch, Scandinavian), Alphonse (French), and Alphonso (English). Short forms include Fonzo, Fonsi, and Lonzo; feminine counterparts include Alfonsa and Alphonsine.
