Bäni

Bäni is a Swiss name for boys. A short alternative to the Germanic name Bernard, it’s further proof of the undeniable cultural ties with Germany, so much so that one of their national languages is Swiss German. Composed of two elements _bern_ meaning “bear” and _hard_ meaning “brave,” it reads “brave bear.” This sweet-sounding and playful name is fitting for baby, working just as well as an endearment. Picture yourself calling out Bäni and your precious little bear scampering towards you for a cuddle! Really, who can resist?
