Galfrid or Galfred (Latinised as {{lang|la|Galfridus}} or {{lang|la|Galfredus}}) is an Anglo-Norman variant of the name Geoffrey. It derives, like German Gottfried (Latinised as {{lang|la|Godafridus}} or {{lang|la|Gothofredus}}, Anglicised as Godfrey), from Old High German {{lang|goh|Godafrid}}, Old French {{lang|fro|Godefroy}}, and Old Norse {{lang|non|Guðfriðr}}, meaning 'God's peace' or 'good protection', depending upon etymological interpretation. Variants, also used as synonymous with Gottfried, include Italian {{lang|it|Goffredo}} and Middle French {{lang|frm|Gaufredi}}. The name is etymologically unrelated to, but was historically used interchangeably, with Welsh {{lang|cy|Gruffudd}} or {{lang|wlm|Gruffydd}} (anglicized as Griffith) in Wales.
