Rebeckah

Rebeckah represents an alternative spelling of the biblical name Rebecca, which derives from Hebrew and means 'to bind' or 'to tie.' This variant spelling incorporates both the 'k' from the original Hebrew form and the 'h' ending, giving it a distinctive appearance while maintaining the traditional pronunciation. The biblical Rebecca was the wife of Isaac and mother of Jacob and Esau. This spelling variation gained some limited usage in English-speaking countries during the late 20th century as parents sought unique spellings of traditional names. While less common than Rebecca or Rebekah, the Rebeckah variant appeals to parents wanting to preserve the name's rich biblical heritage while adding a subtle point of differentiation. The name conveys timeless femininity with spiritual connections.

Pronounced rih-BEK-uh.
