Binh traces its roots to Vietnam, where the Sino-Vietnamese word bình denotes “peace” and “balance.” As a masculine name, it carries connotations of calmness, harmony and equality. California birth records from the 1980s and 1990s show modest usage—five to fifteen newborns per year, with rankings settling in the mid-300s. Pronounced /biːn/, Binh’s phonetic echo of the Spanish word bien (“well” or “good”) has given it added appeal in Latin American communities. Its succinct form and universal meaning attract parents seeking a culturally resonant yet accessible choice.
