Bernessa Origin and Meaning

The name Bernessa is a girl's name of German origin meaning "she who brings victory".

Bernessa is a rare form of the old-fashioned biblical name Bernice, once stylish but now fallen from favor -- though according to the Hundred Year Rule, it could be time for a comeback.

Bernessa softens and updates Bernice quite a bit. No baby girls were named Bernessa in the US last year, which may make this an excellent choice if you are looking for a unique name with real history.
