Famous Bearer of the name: H.G. Wells (first name Hubert), author of "The War of the Worlds", "The Invisable Man" and "The Time Machene". Is given credit of "creating" Martians, science fiction, and the UFO phenomena of the 1900s.
It's a very old-fashioned name, and it's good to remember that most names have positive meanings. That's not a reason to use them on your children. There are also good names with negative meanings. Don't focus too much on the meanings. You're not superstitious, right? I would laugh myself to the point of running out of oxygen and bursting a vein in my head if I heard a parent call out the name of their little boy and it was Hubert. I hate Hugh and Bert, and this is like a terrible sound combo of both ugly names.
Hubert Duck, called Huey for short. Son of Della Duck, nephew of Donald Duck, grandson of Quackmore Duck and Hortense McDuck, grandnephew of Scrooge McDuck. The red triplet.
