History & Origin

Rebbecca is a variant spelling of Rebecca, the biblical matriarch's name, from Hebrew Rivqah. Rebecca surged as an American girls' name in the nineteen-sixties and seventies, and in the busy record-keeping of the era occasional doubled spellings like Rebbecca appeared alongside it, showing in United States records across the twentieth century.

Rebbecca reached its high point in 1975, at the crest of the Rebecca fashion, and remained an uncommon variant afterward. It reads as a spelling of its seventies moment, worn by women now in their late forties, while the standard Rebecca carries the mainstream tradition.

Did you know? Rebbecca simply doubles a letter in Rebecca, one of the Bible's matriarchs; both carry the Hebrew Rivqah, whose sense of binding or tying was read as the pull of beauty.
