Bernat means "brave as a bear".
Hungarian form of Bernard, a name derived from the Old High German Berinhard (bold or strong as a bear), a compounding of the elements bero (bear) and hard (strong, brave, hearty). The name was borne by St. Bernard of Menthon (923-1008), a French monk who founded numerous hospices in the Swiss Alps. (BEHR-NOT)
