Rebeque is Hebrew in Origin.

Rebeque is an uncommon modern respelling of Rebecca/Rebeca, ultimately from Hebrew Rivqah (Rivka). The root r-b-q conveys “to tie” or “bind,” yielding interpretations such as “binding,” “joined,” and by extension “captivating” or “one who connects.” In the Hebrew Bible, Rebecca is the wife of Isaac and mother of Esau and Jacob, securing the name’s enduring religious and cultural resonance.

While the standard form Rebecca spread widely across Europe through Jewish usage and later Christian adoption - especially among English Puritans - and peaked in many Anglophone countries in the late 20th century, Rebeque itself remains rare. It surfaces occasionally as a creative spelling, sometimes in Lusophone or Hispanophone contexts. Established variants include Rebecca, Rebekah (English biblical), Rebeca (Spanish/Portuguese), Rébecca (French), Rebecka (Scandinavian), Rebekka (German/Nordic), Rivka (Hebrew/Yiddish), and Revekka (Russian). Familiar diminutives are Becca, Becky, Bex, and Reba.
