Basque Names that Start With B

Benkamin is an uncommon masculine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Benjamin. While Benjamin derives from Hebrew origins meaning 'son of the right hand' or 'son of the south,' Benkamin represents a unique orthographic interpretation. The substitution of 'k' for 'j' may reflect phonetic spelling traditions from various European languages where the 'j' is pronounced differently. Unlike the widely popular Benjamin, which consistently ranks among top boys' names in many Western countries, Benkamin remains exceedingly rare. It offers families the familiar sound and biblical heritage of Benjamin while providing a distinctive spelling that sets it apart on paper, though pronunciation likely remains the same.
