Humberto

Humberto lifts this ancient name out of the gross association to fictional pedophile Humbert Humbert, investing it with a good measure of Latin charm. It helps that the pronunciation is significantly different, much closer to the Italian Umberto than to the flat-footed original.

Humberto Leon is an American designer and creative director who, with Carol Lim, founded the store Opening Ceremony and designed the fashion line Kenzo.

Humberto is also given to girls.

Pronounced um-BER-toh.

As of October 2026, Humberto ranked #1876 for boys in US births in 2025 and #10855 for girls in US births in 1983 SSA, peaked at #513 for boys in 1990 and #10759 for girls in 1979.
