Albert is a masculine given name. It is derived from the Germanic Adalbert and Adelbert, containing the words adal ("noble") and beraht ("bright", compare Robert). It is also less commonly used as a surname. [2] [1] Feminine forms of the name, such as "Alberta" are relatively uncommon and are declining in use.
