Reginberaht is Germanic in Origin.

Reginberaht is a rare Old High German dithematic name formed from Proto-Germanic *raginą “counsel, decision (often of the gods)” + *berhtaz “bright, illustrious,” giving the sense “bright counsel” or “illustrious advisor.” The first element appears across West and North Germanic as ragin-/regin-/rein-, while beraht > -bert became a common second element in medieval Germanic names.

Attested in early medieval charters and Latinized as Raginberhtus/Ragenbertus, the name was used among the Franks and other continental Germanic peoples. It survives through numerous regional variants: Raginbert/Reginbert, Reinbert/Rainbert (German, Dutch), Rembert (Low German/Dutch), Rimbert (Scandinavian, e.g., the 9th-century archbishop of Hamburg-Bremen), and French Rambert/Raimbert, related to the 7th-century martyr Saint Ragnebert. Today Reginberaht itself is exceedingly uncommon, but its descendants persist as given names and surnames, all carrying the core meaning of “radiant counsel.”
