Not useable. Can only imagine it on a 13th century peasant.

Not a big fan. I think of King Hubert, Prince Philip's not-so-bright father from Disney's Sleeping Beauty.

I like the French pronunciation. The English pronunciation makes it seem super stuffy. I also really don't like the potential nickname Hubie.

I think it’s so, so ugly. Grossly ugly.
However, if it’s being said Frenchly, (is that even a word?). It’s not to bad at all.

It soundly vaguely malicious, like the name of a secretly evil ghost professor.

I always find it funny how people respond to Hubert. Hubert is the 36th most popular boy name in my province, with 203 babies receiving that name, probably due to the saint.I like Hubert, but I prefer Hugo and Robert more. Hubert comes with cute nicknames like Hughie or Bertie.

Bertie isn't so bad, but I knew a Hubert that went by Hubie, and it made me cringe.

I think it is horrendous. It's just... gross.

I don’t like it at all...but I think Huey is the cutest.

I actually kind of like it. It’s like a quirky cross between Hugh and Robert / other -bert names. I wouldn’t use it as a first name (prefer Hugo) but it’s fine as a middle name. As a bonus it’s got a lovely meaning.

I love it! I find it winsomely handsome.

It's unfortunate that the sound is so ugly (not as creepy as Humbert but close), because the meaning is great.

It's even more comical than Herbert. Which is plenty comical.
