I don't care for it at all. It was the name of my husband's grandfather but one I would never consider using. It makes me think of ear nest. It doesn't have a pleasant sound to me.
I also think it would be inevitable that in middle school/high school, he would get called Ernie. And then the "Where's Bert?" jokes would start.
However it wouldn't be so bad as a middle name & then you could avoid Ernie.
