I like it, and is one of the few word names I'd actually use.

Verity Louise
Verity Sylvia
Verity Miriam
Verity Angelica
Verity Isabel
Verity Laura

Yes I think it is usable. I don't dislike the name but it's not one I would use myself.

Definitely one of the better virtue names: together with Clemency and Felicity, it's probably the only one I'd consider using.

---

Very useable, I'd say. (I read a book once which was either written by a woman named Verily or had a Verily character. I thought that was dreadful!)

Verity Mabel
Verity Louise
Verity Laurianne

Totally usable! I've been crushing on Verity lately. It's got an understated beauty I find really appealing.

It's on my favorite list! I remember I first heard it in a thriller. I hadn't heard the word earlier.
I like some old Puritan names, like Hope, Verity and Temperance.

I think Verity is quite pretty. I class it with Temperance and Clemency; slightly dated, very quaint virtue names which are dated enough to be "retro", not as over-used as Grace, Hope or Faith and without the stigma of Chastity or Mercy.

---

But I can but think of how amusing it'd be if there were a con-woman or perjurer called Verity. Irony at its finest. It's the risk one runs with any virtue name - a cold-hearted Clemency, a Temperance with anger-management issues, an atheist Faith, clumsy Grace or pessimistic Hope. Virtue names are just perfect for ironic poor name choices, haha.

That's the main problem, I think, and it's small at that.

I really like Verity, and it's definitely usable. I'm not good at coming up with combos, though.

I know a 16yr old girl called Verity - she has an older sister Imogen - to me it has always looked and sounded rather strange, but I grew up knowing one so it hasn't been too "out there" to me personally. Verity Elizabeth I think is a nice strong combo.

Eminently usable! Verity is pretty and spunky and elegant all at the same time -- and that's rare. It's also got a retro charm that I find irresistable. The character Verity Poldark was my introduction to the name growing up. She was one of my favorites in "Poldark" (BBC). I'm so glad it's catching on.

A lake in Sinnoh for the Pokemon lovers in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. Not a fan of having a child named after a lake in Pokemon. Beyond that I have no idea if I can consider it usable or unusable.

I like it and it's definitely useable. I know two girls called Verity in their twenties - one about 24 and one about 21.

I think it's pretty but substantial and easy to spell and pronounce.

How about:
Verity Jemima
Verity Olivia
Verity Louisa
Verity Clare
Verity Maeve
Verity Suzanne
Verity Rose
Verity Delilah
