Comments for the name Epiphany

Comments for EPIPHANY:

Naming your child this is like naming her Easter.

The name's a bit ''out there'', and it sounds a bit funny with the 'p's and the 'f' sound.

It is kind of like naming your daughter "Eureka!", yet I rather like it -- better than Tiffany or Stephanie, anyway.

If you are choosing to name your child Epiphany, I would strongly encourage that. This name sounds really smart and well grounded. Although it may sound "funny" to some people (and I can't imagine why) this is an incredible name. It has a nice ring to it. Very nice.

Epiphany is just stupid and pathetic as a given name. It will lead to a lot of bad jokes. It also reminds me of the hideous name Tiffany. There is a similar-sounding Spanish name, Epifania, which means the same thing as Epiphany. Why not go for that instead?

I really can't think of a reason to discourage someone from naming their daughter this except for the fact that it's considered "unusual".

The first time I heard it was the name of audience member on a talk show and it led to the host making a few sex jokes. It was introduced and ruined in one fell swoop. Nicknames are Phany/Fanny comes with it's own batch of problems and Eppie which I guess I kinda like.
