I don't think it is really usable. I've wanted to use it on a pet, but never on a person. Definitely only a female name.

I rather like it, because it's a great concept, a fun sound, and one of my very favorite Christian holidays. And I like Tiffany, Theophania, and Theophanes as well.It's not a totally off the wall concept in my culture. Sort of an eccentric African-American name. I know my mother has taught or worked with an Epiffany nicknamed Piff. A friend of mine bought a house from an older black woman named Ethereal. It's in that vein of names to me. I like the idea of it used as a religious term, but I think when it's used it's more just because the concept and sound are cool.

Female, it's okay. I like that it has history but I dislike the way it sounds. Tiffany is actually better sounding but so dated. Eppie is also not the best nickname.

There's something about this name that makes me want to look at it. I like it. Definitely f.Honestly, if I had a daughter arrive on Epiphany day, I don't think I'd be able to stop myself from using this name.

Sounds like someone choking and spluttering. I'd avoid it at all costs.

Don't like it at all

No.Just... no.

I like it, but I think a bearer of this name would be subjected to the typical lame dad-joke treatment that most word based names are (coming from someone with first-hand experience).I’d definitely say F.I always wonder if people who like the name Epiphany like Tiffany to an extent as well.

I like Tiffany ok.

Though they sound similar, I get totally different vibes from the names. I like Epiphany. Not a big fan of Tiffany.

I used to hate Tiffany (now I don't) yet liked Epiphany. Which does seem weird, since they're so similar.

I used to be the same way, I have an appreciation for Tiffany these days, I don’t think it deserves the ditzy, dumb-blonde stereotype it has. The history is really interesting as well, and obviously related to Epiphany...

prefer EpifaniaThe sounds are lovely, but it comes off as evangelical to me.I love Epifania and Epifanio.
