Hubert

Hubert is a European family name and first name. Saint Hubert, first bishop of Liege, Belgium, was the "Apostle to the Ardennes;" As a family name it is explained as an abbreviation of Hubertz (Yiddish and Sorbian form of Huberowitz) meaning "Houber's son" or "(son) of Heber" or simply Heberite. As a first name it is most commonly explained from Teutonic combining the elements Mind (Hu) + Bright (Bert). This is not surprising when considering its Huber element as a derivation of Heber. It also occurs in the following variations:

Hibbert
Kubers
Coopers
Kubritz
Heberite
etc.. (please add more)
