So he would tell folks he’s English.
What does it mean, “Gazoo”?
The Great Gazoo was a martian that appeared to Fred and Barney on the Flintstones.

The Great Gazoo was the little alien on the Flintstones.

Nice cape.
It seems he is still working.
I’ll try to help you out…

Thor
Loki

Volstagg, etc. you get the point…
I am unfamiliar with the comics, but *surely *these names are most known for having been part of the Norse mythology for the past thousand years. Valhalla is not in space. 
AHEM
“(the following may be questionable, as some origin stories say that the following characters are extraterrestrial and some do not, all from Marvel Comics)” They may be BEST known from Norse mythology, but I was responding to the challenge to name 50 aliens, not the OP.
I admire the effort, But I don’t thnk gods should count as aliens. And Gort is a robot – definitely not an alien.
Still, you came up with a longer list than I would be able to.
Ehm, sorry, but according to Marvel they’re not “gods” in the sense of actually having created the world or any of that stuff, they’re extradimensional beings which at some point were encountered by the ancient (insert culture here, they haven’t done it only with the norse) who started worshipping them. Doesn’t “extradimensional being” count as “alien”?
I dunno. If they started on Earth and later moved on up into some updown dimensions, I’d say no.
Besides there ought to be a limit on the numbers of aliens available from any one source.
And one other thing – only one alien per species. Kang and Kodos were mentioned as two aliens. By that logic, there were – I dunno, hundreds? – of aliens in Alien. They didn’t all have names, but you could point at them and say, “This alien, and THAT alien, and…”
Er, to clarify this, I meant it only as counting the 50 aliens, not as related to the OP.
Well that’s why I only mentioned Super Skrull, though I suppose I could do a search and find other “named” Skrulls. But limiting it to one alien per species or naming one species without naming a specific alien…do they both count? Because in that case it gets way easier, as I know just from Star Wars about Jawas and Ugnaughts and Tauntauns and Mynocks and the unnamed giant burrowing worm thing that was in the asteroid that nearly ate the Falcon and the Rancor beast and the Sarlac and so on and so forth. On the other hand, if you are going to limit it to one alien per species, but they have to be named aliens, then of course no Jawas, no Ugnaughts, etc. even though most everyone reading this thread is immediately going to know what a Jawa looks like or that the rebels rode Tauntauns on Hoth in Empire Strikes Back. But it also means that if you mention Zod then you can’t mention Superman, even though they are distinct aliens from the same species.
Possibly according to Marvel, but not to the Norse mythology in which they belong.
To me the whole idea of Thor et al as ‘aliens’ is bizarre, as this is really the first I’ve heard of it. Create a franchise about Jesus and his twelve disciplines as pirates cruising the seven seas, does that mean Jesus is now a pirate? How easily does popular culture override something which has been part of history and religion for a thousand years?
Because they are different characters. The Asgardians from Marvel are extradimensional aliens who once posed as gods. The Æsir from Norse legends are “gods”.
Happens all the time. DC has Superboy who was young Kal-El, Superboy who was an alternate Clark Kent from a parallel Earth, Superboy who was a clone mixing human and Kryptonian genetic material. Three different characters; only one of which is an acknowledged “alien” (although Superboy Prime is implied to be from the alternate Krypton from his parallel home).
I have come up with an answer. If you have to ask if an extradimensional being is an alien, then no, it is not. Super powers alone do not constitute alienhood. And if you don’t have certain knowledge of one’s alien origins, you must assume they are from earth. I don’t even know where my grandmother was born, but just because she smelled kinda funny I can’t assume she was alien.
OK, you lost me on Superboy but your point came across.
(1) Look at the original question, the question of who is the most famous alien in fiction. (2) Stop thinking the world ends at the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. (3) Ask yourself how many of the billion Chinese have ever head of Klaatu. How many of the 600,000,000 Indians? Or the 2 billion or so people in the rest of Asia, Africa, etc.? (4) Then ask, are there more than a handful of people in the entire world who wouldn’t immediately recognize a picture of Superman?
India is over 1.1 billion in population now.
