Norbu, of Tibetan origin, is a unisex given name that translates to "treasure" or "precious jewel." It is often used by people of Tibetan Buddhism as it signifies the accumulation of merits leading to enlightenment. The name Norbu is also popular among the Sherpa community and is frequently found in Nepal and other regions where Tibetans reside.
The number of babies named Norbu has varied over the years, with peaks in 2021 and 2023, but overall, it's quite rare as only 23 were born between 2010 and 2023 inclusive.
