I love it! Veriy and amity are my favourite virtue names.

I love Verity! Amity, Felicity, Unity, and Verity are my favorite virtue names.

I first heard the name watching the 1970's BBC series, "Poldark." One of the minor characters is Verity and I fell in love with the name. (Incidentally, one of the main characters is Demelza. Isn't that a HP name too?)

While I haven't read any of the books or seen any of the movies, I hear about the character names a lot on these boards. I've often wondered if JKR and I watched the same TV shows / read the same books. We have similar taste in literary names: Fleur (Forsyte Saga), Parvati (Jewel in the Crown), and Verity.

Anyway, Verity is gorgeous. I hope it catches on as its own name, not "just" a HP name. I know one girl names Katherine Verity (= pure truth) that would be about ten years old by now. When did the HP books come out?

Oooh....I love this name!

I fell in love with it while reading the HP books too! I also like Clarity. Those are my favorite virtue names and pretty much the only ones I like ending in -ity.
Combos:
Verity Roselle
Verity Deidre
Verity Skye
Verity Autumn
Verity Kerenza
Verity Lunelle
Verity Danielle
Verity Faye

Wow, I never noticed that! It's my cousins name, and I love it :) I think it's very spunky, I like the meaning- and, ofcourse, I have a good association ;) I also love Veritas for a boy.

Verity: (cuz she's just too darn cute)

i like it

Verity is my favorite virtue name! I think it's one that should be seen more often.

I don't really like Verity (I'm not too fond of most V names, for that matter), but I AM a big fan of the sort-of-similar Amity.
