The name Bertmarí is a girl's name of Icelandic origin meaning "light, shining + beloved, drop of the sea".

A modern Icelandic compound name, Bertmarí blends Björt ("bright, light, shining") with Marí, a Nordic form of Marie or Mary. As such, it may be interpreted to mean "shining beloved", "bright drop of the sea", or more spiritually, "light of (the Virgin) Mary". The name was officially added to the list of approved names in Iceland back in 2021.
