Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Meno je južnoslovanskou podobou latinského mena Bonifatius. Vychádza zo spojenia bonum fatum, teda „dobrý osud“ či „šťastný údel“, a označovalo človeka priaznivého osudu. Výklad z latinských slov bonus („dobrý“) a facere („konať“) je neskoršou ľudovou etymológiou.
