LOVE this name.

It is pronounced in the original Hebrew as Benoyohu [Ashkenazi pronunciation] or Benayahu [Sefardi pronunciation].
-- benoyohu dov  7/12/2007
Though the translation given for this name is a correct translation.
The normal translation for this name is 'son of G-d'.

This is because in Hebrew the words for 'son' ['ben'] and 'builder' ['bone'] are very similar due to the concept that the children are the builders of the future.
