London attack: The victims
The path from violent crime to killer
The Metropolitan Police said Masood, 52, who had previous criminal convictions but none for terrorism, had used a number of aliases.
At birth, he was registered in Dartford, Kent, as Adrian Elms, but later took his stepfather's name becoming Adrian Ajao in childhood.
In the early 2000s, he was convicted of causing grievous bodily harm after slashing a man across the face with a knife in a pub.
Masood was believed to have been living in the West Midlands before Wednesday's attack, but had previously spent time in Luton, Crawley, Rye and Eastbourne.
The Saudi Arabian embassy said Masood had worked as an English teacher in the country for two years between 2005 and 2009.
In 2015, he obtained an Umra visa - allowing pilgrimage to Mecca - and was in the country from the 3 to 8 March.
The embassy in London said it "strongly" condemned the "terrorist act in London, as it does all forms of terrorism".
