An uncommon German pick — distinctive and rare.
a male given name, equivalent to English Herbert
Heriberto is a boy's and girl's baby name of German origin, the Spanish form of Herbert, from the Germanic Haribert composed of heri ('army') and beraht ('bright'), meaning 'bright army' or 'shining warrior.' It is widely used across Latin America and Spain, carrying a dignified, Old World Spanish character.
Heriberto was #890 twenty years ago and has since drifted to #2531, but its charm endures.
