Bern is a feminine name with Germanic roots, derived from the word 'bero' meaning 'bear.' It's also the name of the capital city of Switzerland, which gives it a cosmopolitan, European flair. As a given name, Bern is quite uncommon, making it a distinctive choice. It carries connotations of strength and endurance, qualities associated with its bear-related etymology. Bern can also be considered a shortened form of names like Bernadette or Bernarda, though it stands confidently on its own. Its brevity makes it modern and straightforward while its heritage provides depth and character.
