Prudence

Prudence is a gender-neutral name of Latin origin. Derived from the Latin word prudentia, this medieval name means "wise," "skilled," or “ intelligent.” While most commonly used during the Middle Ages and the 17th and 18th centuries, Prudence has made its way to television screens in recent years. Fans of the popular period drama Bridgerton may recognize the name from Prudence Featherington, one of Penelope Featherington’s somewhat haughty sisters. Whether you want to inspire baby to use their smarts or you love a name with vintage vibes, Prudence is a contender worth considering.
