The identity of his father remains uncertain, but the prevailing theories identify Lambert as either the son or paternal grandson of Robert II (Chrodobert II), Lord Chancellor of Francia. An alternative theory would make him son of Warnius and Gunza, although this is not likely.
Lambert was married to Chrotlind, and had three children:
- Landrada, married Sigramnus, Count of Hesbaye
