I think it is great with old gentleman names. My favourite ones:
Alfred Basil
Alfred Byron
Alfred Caspar - an adventurer from the XIXth century.
Alfred Cecil
Alfred Eustace - I can picture this one taking his eyeglass out of his waistcoat. I would say cutely nerdy.
Alfred Henry
Alfred Julius
Alfred Noel - Pleasant and original. I'm not usally fond of Noël, but I think it works well.

Aw. When I was 7 years old I had a hamster named Alfred (the Great). Then I got two more, Albert and Alexander (as in the Macedonian). The nn Alf / Alfie is adorable.
I wonder why Alfred isn't more popular given the fact that there's a king named "Alfred the Great." Hmm. I know Alfred was part of the Victorian medieval, Anglo-Saxon revival, along with Wilfred, Cedric, etc. Perhaps their time is just around the corner. Fashion is a fickle thing.
From your list, I like everything but:
Alfred Basilio
Alfred Battista
Alfred Emile
Alfred Jesper (although Alfred Jasper would be nice)
Alfred Lino (reminds me of linoleum)
Alfred Marco (I adore Marco, but just not here)
Alfred Nikolai (klang!)
Alfred Semyon / Simeon (I can't get apes out of my head)
Alfred Theodore (too chipmunk)
My favorites:
Alfred Barnaby
Alfred Byron (poet lovers delight)
Alfred Cornelius
Alfred Cyril
Alfred Eustace (fun!)

Alfred Bertram
Alfred Casper* ... I had not thought of this. It's charming.
Alfred Henry* ... sleek.
Alfred Jasper
Alfred Johannes* ... delicious.
Alfred Louis*

Alfred Theo ... this is nice. I love Theo (Theodora) for a girl though too much to use it.
Alfred Theodore
Alfred Thomas
Where is Alfred Cedric? I suppose the assonance is a bit repetitive.
