This amalgamation suggests that the name may have been initially given as a descriptive surname, referring to an individual with a sincere and attractive demeanor.

One of the earliest recorded instances of the name can be found in the archives of the Abbaye de Saint-Riquier, a Benedictine monastery located in Picardy, France. The records mention a certain Jean SINCERBEAUX, who served as a scribe in the abbey during the late 1200s. This entry provides tangible evidence of the name's existence and usage during that period.
