anyone know the origin?
Belen
female name, Spanish
I think the origin is hebrew and means "house of bread"
am I right?
does anyone know?
it is a common enough name in Spain, could it be added to the list?

Hmmm...
"House of bread" in Hebrew is "Beit Lechem" ("Bethlehem" in English).
So if this was the origin, it must have transformed a lot. My guess is that it's not it.

Belen is Bethlehem in Spanish
So I guess we were both right...
