Lynburt is English in Origin.

Lynburt is a rare modern English given name formed from the elements Lyn- and -burt. Lyn can derive from Old English/Old Welsh lynn/llyn, meaning 'lake, pool,' or from the Germanic linde, 'soft; linden tree.' The second element reflects the Anglicized -bert, from Proto-Germanic berht, 'bright, famous.' Read together, the name evokes senses such as 'bright by the lake,' 'famous at the water,' or 'gentle-bright,' depending on which Lyn- root is preferred.

With no known medieval attestations, Lynburt appears sporadically in late 20th-21st-century records in English-speaking countries, often as a creative blend of Lynn and Burt or as a respelling related to Linbert/Lambert traditions. It is sometimes treated as unisex but tends to skew masculine due to the -burt ending. Variants and near-forms include Lynbert, Linbert, Lynberth, and Linburt; common short forms are Lyn, Bert, and Burt. It shares its 'bright' lineage with Albert, Gilbert, and Herbert.
