All over the world, Bentley (Bentley 
, בנטלי 
, بنتلي, among others...) is quite a rare principally male, but very infrequently female first name. The forename Bentley is habitual in Curacao, where it is quite a common masculine name, Albania, where it is a rare female name, and Jamaica, where it is a rare boy's name. Measured by absolute frequency, the name is most common in the United States, South Africa, and Indonesia. More frequently, Bentley is the last name as well as the forename.
Bentley is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Bentley , the secondary character of the Sly Cooper franchise, Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time and Bentley Baley , the fictional charachter from the Foundation-Universe by Isaac Asimov, The Caves of Steel.
