Benjamin is a timeless classic that has been a popular baby name for generations, but we think it's time for vibrant variations like Benno to get some of the glory. Meaning “son of the right hand” or “son of the south,” this masculine Hebrew name has a cool, casual quality that we think you’ll adore. Though Benno is brimming with modernity, it actually came to prominence in the mid-20th century thanks to the iconic venture capitalist Benno C. Schmidt Sr. Your little Benno is destined for great success, and their swagger will be undeniable!
