Bethenia, derived from the Hebrew name Bathsheba, means "daughter of the oath." It is a rare and distinctive given name, often favored by those seeking a unique moniker for their child. The name Bethenia consists of three syllables: be-thee-ne-ya. It has been occasionally used in English-speaking countries since the late 19th century but remains quite uncommon, making it an attractive choice for parents looking for something different from more common names like Elizabeth or Rebecca.
The name Bethenia was born to two girls in the year 1938 and again to another two pairs of parents in 1953.
