Denay

If you’ve got a love for myth and folklore, the feminine name Denay will make for an adorable choice for baby.

Matching this mythical vibe, Denay can also be considered a variant of Denny, a nickname for the English Dennis that translates to “follower of Dionysus.” Your little one is sure to revel in learning new stories and discovering age-old epics throughout their life. With Denay connecting them to princesses and the god of festivity, they’ll have plenty of intrigue and excitement to explore.
