According to the Torah, Benjamin's ( or in some countries, Biniam's ) name arose when Jacob deliberately corrupted the name Benoni, the original name of Benjamin, since Benoni was an allusion to Rachel's dying just after she had given birth, as it means son of my pain.
Textual scholars regard these two names as fragments of naming narratives coming from different sources-one being the Jahwist and the other being the Elohist.
