Benito means blessed! I believe my child is blessed and he has blessed me with his precious spirit. Therefore I gave him the name Benito. It fits him perfectly. He is the happiest child I know. Full of joy and extraordinarily charismatic.

Even though I'm part Italian, I don't find this name offensive or anywhere near as bad as Adolf. I associate it more with Benito Juarez than Benito Mussolini. I still wouldn't use it on a non-Spanish child, though.
