Origen e historia

Welsh and English patronymic surname meaning 'son of Robert', from the Old High German 'Hrodebert', composed of 'hrod' (fame, renown) and 'beraht' (bright, shining) — meaning 'bright fame'. The given name Robert was brought to Britain by the Normans and became immediately popular, generating an abundance of derivative patronymics. Roberts is especially prevalent in North Wales and the Welsh Marches.
