Gilbert Fitzrichard Fitz Richard, 1st Earl of Hertford
Son of Richard FitzGilbert de Clare and Rohais (Rohese) Giffard
Father of Richard De Clare, 3rd Earl of Clare; Agnes de Grentemesnil; Walter FitzGilbert de Clare; Baldwin FitzGilbert de Clare; Margaret FitzGilbert de Clare and 10 others

May I ask why Gilbert's name has Fitz Richard twice and not shown as Gilbert FitzRichard de Clare.

Thanks for picking that up, Reg. The extraneous "Fitzrichard" had gotten into the "Middle Name" field somewhere along the way with all the merges.

FYI: When the "Display Name" of a profile is explicitly filled in (vs. being left blank so that it is calculated by the viewer's name-preferences) then the "name shown" may appear differently depending on where one comes across it. In some places (e.g.: on the Tree view), the "Display Name" is used. In other pages on Geni, the other name "parts" are used and the "Also Known As" may also be displayed (such as in a list of potential profile matches).
