The name Kimberly is a girl's name of English origin meaning "Cyneburga's meadow".
Kimberly's heyday was in the 1960s and 70s, when it ranked among the Top 10. While it hasn't been stylish for decades, it's evidenced more staying power than some former hot girl names, remaining among the Top 300 girl names in the US, where it's stood for 70 years.
Does that make Kimberly a classic? We wouldn't go quite that far, but it's shown more staying power than other girls' names starting with K popular around the same time, such as Kelly and Kristen.
