Imbart is in Origin.

Imbart is a rare medieval Romance name of Frankish–Germanic origin, closely related to Old French Isambart/Isambard and to Imbert. It derives from the Germanic elements isan/isarn “iron” and berht “bright, famous,” yielding the sense “iron-bright” or “bright/famous like iron,” a formula often connoting strength and renown. The form entered southern France through Frankish influence and appears in Occitan and Provençal records as a given name before later surviving chiefly as a surname.

Documented variants include Isambard, Isambart, Isembart, Isembert, and Imbert, with regional spellings such as Imbart; cognates occur in Italian (Isambardo, Isemberto) and Spanish (Isambardo). The wider -bert family (e.g., Humbert, Lambert, Gilbert) shares the berht “bright/famous” element. While exceedingly uncommon as a first name today, Imbart offers a distinctive, historically grounded choice with sturdy Germanic roots and a southern French flavor.
