Help[Facts] How do you pronounce ALBERT?
I'm just watching a German TV programme. Thomas Gottschalk has Albert Hammons as one of his guests. And he keeps pronouncing his name "Ohl-bert". Now I have always thought there was a "Royal Albert Hall" in London, pronounced "Al-bert" like in "algebra". Am I totally mistaken?

in Holland we pronounce it like AHL-bert, so yeah kind of like OHL-bert. I'm not entirely sure how to explain the short a-sound we use, but it's something like OHL-bert.

In Sweden it is pronounced as ULL-berrt
Maybe it is the same way as in Holland.

In Spanish
The form Albert is not Spanish. In Spanish, the form is Alberto (ahl-BER-toh).
Albert is the Catalan form, but it is pronounced uhl-BERT.
