Kimberly is an English loan name in Italian.

Specifically, the name is a feminine proper noun. It traces its origins back to the combination of the Old English name Cyneburg (cyne, "royal," and burg, "fortress") and the Old English word lēah ("clearing"). The original meaning therefore is "woodland clearing of the royal fortress."

The pronunciation is "KEEHM-behr-leh."
