Naming children after gods and goddesses has been a common practice across cultures. Names that mean ‘goddess’ have been special for parents who believe that such a name can bestow grace and power upon their daughters. In many ancient civilizations, Goddesses were respected as the source of life and fertility. The names inspired by Goddesses have been passed down through generations, keeping alive age-old traditions. For instance, Victoria refers to the Roman goddess of ‘victory.’ This name has been a favorite with European royals and continues to be a popular name in the contemporary world as well. Another powerful name is the Greek Athena, which is associated with the ‘goddess of wisdom and war.’ Parents like this name because of its association with intelligence and strength. In Hinduism, the Sanskrit name Kali refers to the ‘goddess of time, change, and empowerment.’ Kali is also associated with destruction, which makes it an extremely powerful name for a girl. Some names may not be associated with any particular religious figure but mean goddess. For instance, Kiana, which means ‘goddess-like,’ highlights the divine beauty possessed by a goddess. The Welsh name Rhiannon, which means ‘great goddess,’ celebrates the power and strength of a divine feminine figure.
