What is the name of Lucy Westenra's fiancé in Dracula?

Lucy Westenra’s fiancé in Bram Stoker’s Dracula is Arthur Holmwood.

Lucy receives marriage proposals from three men on the same day: Arthur Holmwood, Dr. John Seward, and Quincey Morris. She chooses Arthur, the son of Lord Godalming. Their engagement establishes Arthur as Lucy’s romantic partner before Dracula’s attack transforms the course of both their lives.

Arthur’s relationship with Lucy is central to the novel’s emotional drama. After Lucy becomes fatally ill, he visits her while Seward and Van Helsing attempt to understand the mysterious cause. When Lucy returns as a vampire, Arthur joins the other men in confronting her. He ultimately drives a wooden stake into her heart, an act presented as a grim but merciful release from Dracula’s curse.

Readers sometimes confuse Arthur with Seward or Morris because all three court Lucy and later participate in the vampire hunt. Jonathan Harker is another common mix-up, but he is Mina Murray’s fiancé and later husband. Arthur eventually inherits his father’s title and becomes Lord Godalming, giving the group both financial resources and social influence during the pursuit of Dracula.
