[Opinions] Re: Gilbert
in reply to a message by guru
I'd give Gilbert a 6, I think, where "5" is neutral. (ETA: The more I think about him, I'm bumping him up to a solid 7.) I like him, but not really enough to consider using him. His meaning is lovely and he does feel "friendlier", perhaps, than some of the other "bert" names.
Robert and Elbert are family names for me and I like them both, though prefer Robert. I knew a Delbert who was a very nice young man...he'd be around thirty now, I think. But my favorite, most-loved "bert" has long been Lambert. And almost no one else likes him.
