Meaning and history
Epiphany is an English Christian word-name from Greek epiphaneia, meaning “appearance” or “manifestation.” The Feast of the Epiphany celebrates the revelation of Christ, especially the visit of the Magi in Western Christianity and Christ’s baptism in many Eastern traditions. As a personal name it belongs to the tradition of devotional and calendar names. A notable bearer is American basketball player Epiphanny Prince, whose differently spelled given name derives from the same word and feast.
