A rarely used Biblical place-name with a soft and pleasant sound.

Bethenny is the spelling introduced to the world by and closely associated with Real Housewife of New York Bethenny Frankel. While the name has a bit of charm, we recommend sticking with the original Bethany spelling.

Long forgotten Old Testament name with modern potential.
