This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-class status:
He's called Alfonso in both Hallam's Capetian France and in (the translation of) Duby's France in the Middle Ages. I assume he was named for his maternal grandfather Alfonso VIII of Castile. I'd have to do more digging to see if Alphonse, Alfonse, or Alfonso is more common. I'm pretty sure, however, that he is most often called "... of Poitiers", though "... Count of Poitou" may be more consistent with the names of other wikipedia articles. Loren Rosen (talk) 07:15, 23 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
