Becca

Becca is an English short form of Rebecca, which derives from the Hebrew name Rivqah, whose precise root meaning is debated but is often linked to a word meaning to tie or to bind. Rebecca is a prominent biblical figure, the wife of Isaac and mother of Jacob and Esau, which helped establish the name throughout the Christian world. Becca has been used as an independent given name since at least the twentieth century, particularly in English-speaking countries. The full form Rebecca, along with the variant Rebekah, remains far more common.
