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 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #513 in 1990.
