    Berenice

    Pronounced beh-reh-NEE-see

    girl
    Not found in the KJV text — No — the name Berenice does not appear in the King James Bible. Christian families use it for its meaning, "Bringer of victory; She who brings", and for the biblical themes that meaning touches, not because anyone in Scripture is called Berenice.
    Meaning
    "Bringer of victory; She who brings"
    Origin
    Greek

    Berenice brings victory — and believers are given victory through Christ. 'But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.' Berenice carries the triumph that only faith can win.

    Spiritual meaning

    Berenice brings victory through Christ — thanks given, death overcome, the woman who carries triumph not her own but God's gift to the faithful.

    Questions about biblical name meanings

    How do I find the biblical meaning of a name?

    Type the name into the search box above. The tool returns the Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, or Latin root behind the name, its literal meaning, and the King James Version passages where it appears.

    Does every name have a biblical meaning?

    No. Many modern Christian names never appear in Scripture, and some popular 'biblical meanings' circulating online are inaccurate. Where a name is thematic rather than scriptural, we say so plainly instead of inventing a verse for it.

    Which Bible translation do the verses come from?

    The King James Version. It is public domain in the United States, so the text can be quoted and shared freely.

    How can I tell whether a name is actually in the Bible?

    Each result distinguishes a name that appears in the KJV from a later Christian or thematic name. Related verses explain a theme; they are not presented as proof that a modern name occurs in Scripture.
