Beringer is Germanic in Origin.
Beringer is a Germanic given name and surname rooted in the dithematic Old High German Berengar, from bero/bern “bear” + ger “spear,” yielding the evocative sense “bear-spear” or “bear’s spear.” The form Beringer appears in medieval German-speaking records, where spelling fluctuation produced parallel forms alongside Berenger; over time it stabilized more commonly as a family name.
The name circulated widely in early medieval Europe through Frankish and Lombard influence, producing notable bearers such as King Berengar I of Italy (Latin Berengarius) and the French Bérenger. Norman transmission carried the name into England, though its use later diminished. Today Beringer is rare as a given name yet retains a strong, old-world profile. Close variants include Berengar, Berenger, Latin Berengarius, French Bérenger, Italian/Spanish Berengario, Portuguese Berengário, and Catalan/Occitan Berenguer; feminine counterparts include Berengaria (Spanish Berenguela) and French Bérangère.
Beringer is about as rare as a name gets. In all, it appears just 1 time, across 1 country.
