Meaning & History

Yiddish name derived from bin(e) "bee", which was originally used as a translation of the Hebrew name DEBORAH, though it has since become associated with modern Hebrew bina "understanding".

Allegedly it is sometimes used as a Hebrew form of SOPHIA, and is also the Yiddish form of the Judeo-Spanish name BUENA.
