Norbert m
English: of Norman origin, and so ultimately Germanic, composed of the elements nord north + berht bright, famous. Its best-known bearer was an 11th-century saint who founded an order of monks known as Norbertians (also called Premonstratensians from their first home at Premontré near Laon). Norbert was one of several names of Germanic origin that were revived in Britain in the late 19th century, but it is now rather more common in America than Britain.
