Belphoebe Origin and Meaning

The name Belphoebe is a girl's name meaning "beautiful shining one".

The name of the character in Edmund Spenser's "The Faerie Queene" whom the poet intended as a representation of Queen Elizabeth I. While it will no doubt thrill your daughter's English professor, the addition of the "Bel" to already great Phoebe is on the fussy side.
