Benjen

US Popularity Rank: 22651

Origin: Hebrew

Meaning: son of the right hand or son of the south

Benjen is a unique take on the popular masculine Benjamin. It is of Hebrew origin and means "son of the right hand," just as Benjamin does. But it comes most famously from the brilliant high fantasy series A Game of Thrones, with Uncle Benjen.
