Adalbert is a Germanic given name that was popular during the Middle Ages. The name is derived from the elements “adal”, meaning “noble”, and “beraht”, meaning “bright” or “famous”.
Adalbert was a popular name among saints and other religious figures in medieval Europe, and it remains in use in some countries today. The name was borne by several notable people, including Saint Adalbert of Prague, a bishop and martyr from the 10th century, and Adalbert von Chamisso, a German poet and botanist from the 19th century.
Adalbert is not as common as it once was, but it is still used as a given name in some countries, particularly in Central and Eastern Europe.
