Sir Alexander Nelson Hood, 5th Duke of Bronté KCVO (28 June 1854 – 1 June 1937) was a British courtier. Hood was the son of Alexander Hood, 1st Viscount Bridport and Lady Mary Penelope, daughter of Arthur Hill, 3rd Marquess of Downshire. While Hood's eldest brother Arthur Hood succeeded their father as 2nd Viscount Bridport, the Duchy of Bronté was left to Alexander who became the 5th Duke of Bronté. This was possible because of a special and unusual clause in the letters patent granting the duchy, which allowed the present holder to choose as successor whoever he wanted.
