History & Origin
Beonka is a creative respelling of Bianca, the Italian word for 'white' and a sister name to the French Blanche and Spanish Blanca. The altered vowels give a familiar name an individual look while preserving its bright, flowing sound.
The name stayed rare, appearing mainly around 1991, when it peaked with roughly twenty girls a year before fading. A girl named Beonka then is in her mid-thirties today, part of an early-1990s taste for reworked spellings.
