Beno is of Latin origin, derived from the Roman family name Bene(n)cius. It is composed of the elements 'bene,' meaning good or well, and 'nomen,' translating to name. The name Beno was popularized during the Middle Ages in Europe as a given name, often used alongside other names like Benjamin or Benedict that share similar root meanings. Today, Beno remains relatively uncommon but carries a unique charm, reflecting its Latin roots and historical usage.
The name Beno appears to have had some popularity in the early 20th century, with six births recorded in 1917 and five in 1923. After a gap of eight decades, it resurfaced again in 2003 with another five births. Overall, there were sixteen children named Beno born across these three years.
