God is my oath; weaver
Bex is primarily a modern diminutive of Rebecca or Elizabeth, though it is increasingly used as a standalone unisex name. As a derivative of Rebecca, it shares the Hebrew meaning of 'to tie' or 'snare,' while its connection to Elizabeth links it to the meaning 'God is my oath.' In some English contexts, it may also be used as a short form of the surname Baxter, meaning 'weaver.'
