Beneva is of Latin origin, derived from the word 'benignus', which means kind or benevolent. It is an uncommon name but has a certain charm due to its unique sound and meaning. The name Beneva could be interpreted as a wish for kindness and goodwill, making it a fitting choice for those who value compassion and generosity.
Beneva was quite popular around the Roaring Twenties and early Thirties, but then its popularity began to decline, with a notable resurgence in the mid-Fifties.
