'''Huneric''' or '''Hunneric''' or '''Honeric''' (died December 23, 484) was [[King]] of the (North African) [[Vandal Kingdom]] (477–484) and the oldest son of [[Genseric]]. He abandoned the imperial politics of his father and concentrated mainly on internal affairs. He was married to [[Eudocia (daughter of Valentinian III)|Eudocia]], daughter of [[western Roman Emperor]] [[Valentinian III]] (419–455) and [[Licinia Eudoxia]]. The couple had one child, a son named [[Hilderic]].
 
Huneric was the first Vandal king who used the title ''King of the Vandals and [[Alans]]''. Despite adopting this style, and that of the Vandals of maintaining their sea-power and their hold on the islands of the western Mediterranean, Huneric did not have the prestige that his father Genseric had enjoyed with other states.
