Ingomar is an unincorporated community in Merced County, California. It is located on the Southern Pacific Railroad 10.5 miles (17 km) northwest of Los Banos, at an elevation of 92 feet (28 m).
A post office operated at Ingomar from 1890 to 1921. The name was probably from the 1842 German play Ingomar, the Barbarian by Baron Eligius Franz Joseph von Münch-Bellinghausen, a popular work in the dramatic canon in the late 19th century.
