Berangari is Germanic in Origin.

Berangari is a rare feminine given name connected to the medieval Germanic compound Berengar (from ber- “bear” + -ger “spear”). Through Latin Berengarius (m.) and its feminine Berengaria, the name spread across Romance-speaking Europe; Berangari appears as an occasional variant spelling in Iberian and Occitan records where unstressed e was frequently reduced. The meaning is “bear-spear,” evoking a strong, battle-ready protector.

Usage peaked in the High Middle Ages with royal bearers such as Berengaria of Navarre, queen of England, and the Castilian ruler Berenguela, which kept the form visible in courtly circles. In later centuries it waned, though related forms survived locally and Bérangère revived the tradition in France. Close variants include Berengaria (English/Italian), Berenguela (Spanish/Galician), Berengària (Catalan), Berengária (Portuguese), Bérangère (French), and the cognate masculine roots Berengar, Berenguer, Bérenger, and Berengario.
