Beautiful name. Great sounds and rhythm. But after naming your child Avenging Murder, you better be sleeping with one eye open!
Ooh. I like this name. I also like the meaning for some reason. It’s great for a fictional character.
I like the sound & the murder meaning. Very gothic and oddly appealing.
English pronunciation is ti-SIF-ə-nee.
This is a great name. Strong, pretty, and different. The meaning can be a turn-off, but avenging murder can be a good thing.
Tisiphone is one of the Erinyes or Furies. Furies are female deities of vengeance. They each avenged different crimes. Tisiphone is the one who punished crimes of murder. She also has two sisters Alecto and Megaera who are furies, too. Cool names for triplets! That's were Tisiphone's meaning comes from.
Not sure about the meaning, but what a pretty name!
Tisiphone is a beautiful name, and the meaning doesn't bother me at all. However, I feel like if I ever named my daughter this, everyone would call her Tiffany all the time. Yuck.
I absolutely ADORE the name Tisiphone. It is easily one of the most gorgeous names I've heard; and the meaning is a strong one. "Avenging murder" is a lovely meaning to me, for some reason.
I think this name is much better than other more frequently used Greek names, like Chloe, Zoe, Daphne, and even Persephone.
This name is easily one of my favorites!
Gorgeous sound, poetic meaning, but I'd never give this name to a child. "avenging murder?" yikes.
Vengence and murder. How cute! I can totally picture it on someone with really gothic poets for parents, in a strangely cool way.
Pronounced ta-SIF-ah-nee. Despite its "odd" meaning, I think it quite pretty.
