It says namecoin.

Currently namecoin is almost dead with its volume. But its ranking is below 800.

Tried to do a search about it and it turns out that it is indeed Namecoin, I thought it was Litecoin which I'm wrong Litecoin was the only fork of Bitcoin. However the Namecoin project died and was discontinued and probably the next coin that come is the Litecoin, I wasn't sure about this though.

Many would have thought Litecoin but since we're not yet there when both have been launched, it's better to do a bit of research.

Next to namecoin is you're right. It's Litecoin, despite being one of the oldest altcoins in the market, it's still on demand and one of the top coins in the market today.

I don't think that anyone is here having answer of this question.
I also google it for information but i did not get the results. So if anyone know ,please inform us.

Lol are you serious? How long you have been here? someone was also giving the right answer if name coin was the first altcoin. It seems like you were not using your google properly.
We know the history of altcoins. So many old members here know so well about that. name coin was forking the bitcoin code and it was giving some changes to the code and then it was coming as namecoin.
People just know that if doge and litecoin were the first altcoin created because they ddin't know about the history of altcoin so well.

I'm wondering if anyone knows what was the first ever altcoin created.

Probably it took some time after genesis for someone to come up with an alt.
