Meaning:Self-conceit; empty; Excessive pride; Self-admiration
Vanity is a feminine name with French and Latin connections that can serve as a cheeky spin on classic virtue names like Patience and Hope. Coming from the Old French word vanite, it can translate to “self-conceit,” while its roots in the Latin word vanus can have it mean “empty.” Nowadays, Vanity is best known to mean “excessive pride” or “self-admiration,” but don’t let that discourage you. Being self-assured in one’s own abilities is a great trait for baby to have. This name can also remind baby to appreciate the abilities of others and be aware of their own ability to grow. If you want to encourage baby to practice confidence and self-pride without going over the top, Vanity can make for a humbling reminder.
