zgirnius:
The name is Alphard...
I think, if Regulus retrieved and possibly destroyed a Horcrux before 
being killed by the Death Eaters instead of turning to Sirius or the 
Order for help, the description may be a good fit for his personality 
as well.

sbarthell:
> Just one question, who in the book is named Alphred?

zgirnius:
A Black uncle, a wealthy one who died and left Sirius enough money 
that he was able to live on his own. That seems to be the sort of 
relative it makes sense to name a son after, for crass financial 
reasons!
