Whats up with alfred, lord tennysons name?
Because the “Lord” is not his name, it’s his title. So his name was Alfred Tennyson. Once he became a Lord, one way to write his name is Alfred, Lord Tennyson. The same applies to Byron. His full name, reflecting his title, was George Gordon, Lord Byron. Queen Elizabeth can be referred to, among other things, as Queen Elizabeth II, Lord of Mann. ETA: To answer your further question, people refer to both men in various ways. Tennyson is often called “Tennyson”. Byron is often called “Lord Byron”.
