This name became synonomous with ignorant rustics (mainly Southern U.S.) at some point. Think long and hard before naming a child this. I have two uncles named Delbert from the Ozarks.

I don't like Delbert as a first name, but I think it would sound good as a middle name. I think Laurence Delbert would go nice together.

Sounds kind of nerdy to me. Like a beady-eyed accountant. Hmm, he would make an interesting character though.
