Destinee

US Popularity Rank: 4721

Origin: French

Meaning: one's certain fortune; fate

Baby's future will be written in the stars with this French girl's name. Destinee means "one's certain fortune" or "fate" and is a variant of Destiny, an Old French name. Calling to mind the Fates of Ancient Greece, this name has a mythological, spiritual feel but has a modern spin in the -ee suffix. The three Fates—Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos—represented the certainty of one's destiny, so baby Destinee can feel reassured that everything will work out exactly as it's supposed to.
