Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Adelard je variant germánskeho mena Adalhard. Jeho zložky zodpovedajú starohornonemeckému adal (urodzenosť, vznešený rod) a hart (tvrdý, pevný, odvážny). Výklad „vznešený a odvážny“ je voľným zhrnutím významov týchto zložiek.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Etymológia a príbuzné podoby: Behind the Name – Adalhard, Adélard. Slovenské skloňovanie je aplikáciou vzoru chlap podľa Morfológie slovenského jazyka; koncové spodobovanie vychádza z Pravidiel slovenského pravopisu. Francúzska výslovnosť: Wiktionary – Adélard. Historický nositeľ: Biblissima – Adélard de Bath. Ustálené slovenské domácke podoby sa v použitých zdrojoch nepodarilo doložiť, preto je ich zoznam prázdny; nevylučuje to individuálne rodinné používanie. Maďarská podoba Adelárd nebola spoľahlivo overená, preto je hodnota hu prázdna. Audit nie je stanoviskom JÚĽŠ SAV ani Milana Majtána.
