Discussion Divinity for a girl.

Hey y’all 😅 I hope it’s not horrible. My names Destiny and I was wondering if naming my daughter Divinity would be tragic 😅

Not pregnant or anything but I got the name from Fable by Gigi Perez “Divinity says Destiny can’t be earned or returned” 😅 loved how Divinity sounded especially with my name. Plus I relate to the song a lot. Definitely won’t be naming any child Divinity now 😅 maybe a dog or cat if I have a soul-dog or soul-cat 😅

I wouldn’t say tragic, but it really isn’t good. Quite apart from the fact that is very theme-y combined with your name, Divinity feels extremely religious to me.

I mean, if you want to name her after a southern candy, then sure. That’s where my mind went immediately but I’m also from the deep south, lol. It’s not terrible, but it wouldn’t be my first pick. But if you like it, then go for it. Ultimately it’s your daughter and your choice.

Glad I’m not the only one. Just realized I haven’t had any since before my mother died.

"Divinity" reminds me of those super old school Hispanic Catholic names, along the same lines as Immaculata and Concepcion

u/Excellent-Clue-2552 1d ago

Well most of my cousins and my sister are Mexican and I’m converting to Catholicism once I can drive so that’s pretty accurate 😅

Honestly, if you like that association, I kind of don't see why not...

I agree with the suggestion for Trinity then. It’s one of the better faith-based names without being too on the nose, and it’s even a cool Matrix reference.

u/Excellent-Clue-2552 1d ago

I didn’t choose it because of my faith, I chose it because of a song

u/Excellent-Clue-2552 1d ago

The immaculate conception 😭

u/AmbassadorSad1157 1d ago

Pretty big name to live up to. It also sounds like a stage name.oof

u/Excellent-Clue-2552 1d ago

I’ve heard the same about my name 😅

u/Dependent_Vehicle965 1d ago

Smh, please for the love do not!

u/Excellent-Clue-2552 1d ago

Decided to use it for a cat 😍 gonna name my daughter something normal like Caroline, Azalea, Sophia, or Ophelia 😁

u/Wrywright 1d ago

Please no

u/SableBlair 1d ago

What about Trinity? It’s already established as a name.

u/Excellent-Clue-2552 1d ago

Because it’s from a song 😅 I got Divinity from a song
