A male given name: from Old High German words meaning “noble” and “bright.”.
Albert is a masculine given name. It is derived from the Germanic words adal "noble" and beraht - "bright".
Masc. proper name, from German (the French form is Aubert), from Old High German Adalbert, literally "noble-bright," from Old High German adal "noble family," from Proto-Germanic *athala- (see atheling) + second element is from Proto-Germanic berhta- "bright," from PIE *bhereg- "to shine; bright, white" (see bright (adj.)). The compound is cognate with Old English Æþelbeorht (which sometimes was metathesized as Æþelbriht, hence the surname Albright). As a kind of watch chain, from 1861 (see Prince Albert).
From Old Germanic Adal-brecht or Adalbert: noble-shining; noble and bright. Combine of adal (noble) and beraht (bright, famous).
