A famous bearer was English philosopher Bertrand Russell (1872-1970). Bertrand is a derivative of the Germanic name Bertramhat which is in itself a combination of two words, “berht” which means "bright", and “hrabn” which means "raven". In Germanic mythology the raven was the bird of Odin who was the king of the Gods.
