Jilberto is a distinctive and captivating given name, derived from the Spanish 'Gilberto', which itself is a variant of the Germanic 'Chilbert'. This name has been traditionally used in Spain and Latin America, but it's not particularly common, making it unique and memorable. It's composed of two elements: 'Gilb' meaning 'bright' or 'shining', and 'ert' which is of uncertain origin but may relate to 'famous' or 'strong'. The name Jilberto thus carries connotations of brightness and strength, yet remains distinct due to its uncommon usage.
The name Jilberto had a noticeable spike in popularity between the years of 1980 and 2005, with the most births occurring in 2000 (10 births). However, it is important to note that there were no recorded births with this name from 1946 to 1974. Since then, the popularity has fluctuated but remained relatively stable, with a total of 194 births over the course of these years.
