About Clarity
Clarity is one of the lightest of the newly rediscovered virtue names, with a bit of three-syllable sparkle, old-fashioned charm and a clear vision for the future. Clarity is a very desirable quality in this confusing world and it also, unlike some other newly coined word names, has real meaning and history as a name.
Clarity is preferable to Charity and definitely to Chastity, with the possibility of Clare as a short form.
Pronounced KLAR-uh-tee.
As of October 2026, Clarity ranked #1759 in US births in 2025 SSA.
Editor's take: The name Clarity is a girl's name of English, Latin origin meaning "the quality of being clear".
