Oberron
o-berron,
ob(er)-ron
Origin:German
Meaning:Noble or royal bear; Elf ruler
Oberron is the English counterpart of Auberon, a German name for boys. While it means “noble or royal bear,” its derivative Alberich means “elf ruler.” In Germanic mythology, Alberich was the name of a dwarf who was appointed guardian of a treasure. The name Oberon then first appeared in a 13th-century French poem to refer to an elven hero. Later, Shakespeare weaved the name into A Midsummer Night’s Dream, where Oberon appears as the King of Fairies. With such a colorful past, Oberron is a name that can inspire your little one to keep reinventing themselves.
