Bence Origin and Meaning

The name Bence is a boy's name of Hungarian origin meaning "conquering".

Bence has been the most popular boy name in Hungary for over a decade — it’s held the top spot since 2003, the year Hungary began releasing its baby name data. Bence is the Hungarian translation of Vincent and is also occasionally used as a nickname for Benedek.

Bence could fare well outside of its native Hungary, if given the chance. We like it as an alternative to Benjamin or Ben.
