Boy
Delbert
As a boy's name, Delbert is understood to mean "Possibly bright day or blend of Del + Albert". It had its heyday in the 1920s and has mostly fallen out of use since. Today, it is comfortably in the mainstream in the registry. It has appeared in U.S. birth records in nearly every decade since 1900, a genuinely long run.
