Too old fashioned?

Mandy6887 · May 2015

We love the name Bert as a nickname but were considering the birth certificate being Albert ... Is this too old fashioned now?
I know older names are back but haven't heard of any baby Alberts.
Be honest... Need a real reaction without telling family and friends. X

I like Albert. I prefer the old fashioned names to most of the new names.

Not a fan. But it's a real name spelled correctly, so go with it if you love it!

I can get behind Albert.

LizWhiz87 · May 2015

No, I love Albert!

Albert is nice! Or maybe Robert nn Bert? Herbert or Gilbert?

I am not a fan. Reinds me of Bert and Ernie

LOVE Albert. My husband isn't sold on it yet, for our hypothetical baby #3.

Don't love the nn Bert quite as much though.

I don't think it's too old fashioned. It's not my personal favorite name, but not bad either. If you love it, go for it!

Albert is great!

Albert isn't bad, but I immediately think Bert and Ernie with nn Bert.

Alberts ok...don't really like Bert though

I love Albert but not a fan of Bert as a nn. I actually suggested Albert for our son but my husband nixed it

Yep.

I already replied saying I love Albert, but the more I think about it, I absolutely ADORE Bert. It reminds me of Dick Van Dyke's character in Mary Poppins.
