Reubén Origin and Meaning
Reubén is a masculine name that represents a Spanish variation of Reuben, which originates from Hebrew. The name means 'behold, a son' and appears in the Bible as one of Jacob's twelve sons who became the founders of the tribes of Israel. The Spanish spelling with the accent mark (é) gives the name its authentic Spanish pronunciation, emphasizing the second syllable.

The name carries biblical gravitas combined with a warm, melodious Spanish inflection. For parents seeking a name with religious significance and Hispanic cultural connections, Reubén offers a distinguished choice that bridges ancient tradition with contemporary multicultural appeal.
