GISELBERT. Old
Frank name meaning "bright pledge," from Teutonic gisel "pledge" and bert
"bright." (History of
Christian Names, Yonge, 1884). Other forms include Gijsbert,
Guislaberto, and Gyselbrecht.
... For
some years Lotharingia or Lorraine had held an uncertain position
between the kingdoms of the East and the West Franks, as Germany and
France were then called; but at this time Duke Giselbert, who was an old
friend of Henry, quarrelled with Charles the Simple, and transferred his
allegiance to the German king... (Encyclopaedia
Britannica, De Puy, v.11, 1891)
