Hubbard is an English surname. The name is a variant of the surnames Hobart, Hubbart, Hubbert, and Hubert.[1][2] These surnames are derived from personal names, such as the Old German Hugibert and Hubert,[2] which are composed of the elements hug ("heart", "mind", "spirit") and berht ("bright", "famous").[1][2] Early forms of the surname include filius Huberti (in 1066), Hubert (in 1199) Huberd and Hubert (in 1230), and Hoberd (in 1291).[2]
