* The hero of ''Master of Mosquiton'' is Alucard Von Mosquiton.

* The bizarre Creator/DellComics superhero version of Dracula uses "Aloyisius Ulysses Card" as his secret identity.
* A story with [[ComicBook/MickeyMouseComicUniverse Mickey Mouse]] as a HardBoiledDetective has him encounter a mysterious couple calling themselves "Alucard". They turn out to be the descendants of the real Count {{Dracula}}, who, unlike the ''[[RealLife real]]'' [[UsefulNotes/VladTheImpaler real "Dracula"]], was a perfectly nice and ordinary guy who got a bad reputation for convoluted reasons involving an illness that caused vulnerability to sunlight and his efforts to cure it.

* In ''WebVideo/HellsingUltimateAbridged'', there's a [[SplitPersonality slight distinction]] between Dracula and Alucard, even though they are the same person. Dracula is polite, friendly, erudite, and [[AffablyEvil incredibly, monstrously cruel]], while Alucard is a cheerful, petty, sex-crazed {{Troll}} who delights in screwing with people. It's a plot point that almost none of their enemies worked this out until the climax, and the ones who did are mildly embarrassed it took them so long to figure it out.

* The [[UrExample original use]] of "Alucard" as a vampire's alias was in the 1943 film ''Film/SonOfDracula'', starring Lon Chaney, Jr. It hits UnbuiltTrope territory in that every character in the movie figures out the obvious nature of the alias immediately.

* In the Mexican film ''Film/{{Alucarda}}'', which combines Satanism with vampirism and homosexuality, the protagonist is an orphan of the same name, however she has no relationship with Dracula and in fact the whole plot is more similar to that of the novel Carmilla.
** The prologue depicts Alucarda's birth to Lucy Westenra, suggesting that she is Dracula's daughter. Later in the film she finds and opens Lucy's casket.

* The title character in the ''Literature/AnnoDracula'' novel ''Literature/JohnnyAlucard'', who [[spoiler:by the end of the book has become the new Dracula]].

* In the ''Dracula'' TV series, Dracula went by the name of Alexander Lucard.

* Downplayed with Alucard from ''VideoGame/MobileLegendsBangBang''. He is not a vampire or related to one, however, he is a Demon Hunter that most likely hunted down vampire creatures and his skills has life steal built in to emulate vampires. Additionally, he gets inhuman power from his [[TheRightHandOfDoom corrupted right hand]].

* In the animated Franchise/{{Batman}} movie ''WesternAnimation/TheBatmanVsDracula'', Dracula uses the false identity of "Dr. Alucard, anthropologist". It doesn't take that long for Bruce Wayne to see through this not-too-subtle disguise. Bruce reveals the truth to Alfred (and the audience) by writing "ALUCARD" with backwards letters on a serving tray and holding it up to a mirror.

* There is an Alucard present in ''Manga/RosarioToVampire'', though he is a [[EldritchAbomination massive, tentacled monstrosity]] that used to be a vampire before his immense power and hatred turned him into what he is now. [[spoiler:His intelligent side was cloned into [[BigBad Miyabi Fujisaki, a.k.a. The Masked King]].]]

* Occurs in ''Webcomic/TheAdventuresOfDrMcNinja'' with the real Dracula. Doc thinks that Ben Franklin's a moron to fall for that name, complete with HeadDesk reaction. Although Doc later notes that the use of his most obvious pseudonym was most likely to ensure they went looking for him.

Compare and contrast LouisCypher where other [[DevilInDisguise dark creatures]] use similarly [[SueDonym witty aliases]] and HughMann where the creature posing as human also has a PaperThinDisguise. Related to MostDefinitelyNotAVillain.

* In ''Mugen Shinshi'', Alucard is the name of the title character's old butler. Unsurprisingly, it's revealed he comes from Transylvania and has some vampiric blood.

* Alluded to in ''Discworld/{{Thud}}''--Vimes intercepts secret messages by someone named "Aicalas," just after caving into pressure to allow a vampire named Salacia onto the Watch. He wonders why vampires always think that they can get away with [[SdrawkcabAlias that trope]].
