Where it comes from
* From the name of a 7th-century English female saint, Kyneburga or Cyneburg, from Old English cyne- (“royal”) + burh (“fortress”).
* English: probably a habitational name from East and West Kimber in the parish of Northlew in Devon, so named from Old English cempa (“warrior”) (or the Old English personal name Cempa) + bearn (“grove/wood”). It may also be an altered form of Kimbrough. Jewish (Ashkenazic): variant of Kinberg.
