Athena
“Athena,”is the ancient Greek goddess of wisdom, reason, strategic warfare, justice, and skilled craftsmanship. Unlike the more impulsive gods of war, Athena represents the intellect governing strength—the idea that victory is best achieved through foresight, discipline, and intelligent strategy.
The patron goddess of the city of Athens, is associated with over a dozen sacred symbols from which she derived her powers. Born from Zeus’s head, she was his favorite daughter and possessed great wisdom, bravery, and resourcefulness. A virgin, she had no children of her own but occasionally befriended or adopted others. Athena had a large and powerful following and was worshiped throughout Greece.
The feminine name Athena will remind your little one that with a little creativity and quick thinking, anything is possible. With pre-Greek origins, this moniker survives thanks to Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom, warfare, and craftwork.
