William ___ , king of England from 1087 to 1100 (5)

I believe the answer is:

rufus

(Other definitions for rufus that I've seen before include "Red-headed man possibly" , "redhead" , "Name of King William II" , "-- Hound, comedian" , "King William II nickname" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
