Berengar is a masculine name of some popularity among certain noble families during the Middle Ages, especially the Unruochings and those related. Bérenger is the French form and Berengario the Italian. The Latin form is Berengarius - compare the feminine equivalent, Berengaria. The name ultimately derived from Germanic roots meaning "bear" and "spear" (cf. Geir, Gerald).

Berenguer is the Catalan form of the name. Berenguier/Berengier is the Occitan.

It's also a compound name with "Raymond" in the family of the counts of Barcelona and Provence.
