History & Origin

Berenise is the Spanish-flavored spelling of the ancient Greek name Berenice, 'she who brings victory', once borne by Macedonian and Egyptian queens. The -ise ending and softened sound mark its Latin-American usage.

In the United States it stayed a heritage favorite, cresting in the early nineteen-nineties at just a few dozen girls a year; it reads as an elegant classical name refreshed for Spanish-speaking families rather than a fleeting coinage.
