Hilbert

Comments (Usage Only)

Hilbert is also used in the Dutch-speaking world (particularly the Netherlands), where its prevalence is comparable to that in Germany.

In Dutch, Hilbert is pronounced as: /'ɦɪl.bərt/

With that said, the name has also seen some use in Scandinavia, but not to the same extent, i.e. it's extremely rare over there.
