Behati

Namibian supermodel Behati Prinsloo, who has walked the runway for every designer from Prada to Versace to Vera Wang, has introduced us to this Afrikaans version of Beata and relative of Beatrice. Ultimately from the Latin beatus, it is pronounced as beh-AH-tee, making it a rhythmic twist on an international favorite.

Pronounced buh-AH-tee.

As of October 2026, Behati ranked #11227 in US births in 2024 SSA, peaked at #10255 in 2014.
