Eberhard Origin and Meaning

The name Eberhard is a boy's name of German origin meaning "brave boar".

Much more niche and obviously Germanic than its anglicised cousins Everard and Everett, but with the same strong meaning. Eberhard is hardly ever used in the US - it's only made the charts once so far, back in 1918.
