Hudbard, or Hudbad, was leader of the Onogundur tribe, a federation of the Kutrigurs and Utigurs, from around 584 to around 600. The Avar khagan Bayan appointed him to govern Onoguria. His predecessor in this position was Sandilch. Hudbad died in an epidemic in 599 or 601 during the battle on the River Tisza between Byzantium and the Avars. After his death, Organa, Kubrat's maternal uncle, became regent of Onoguria.
