Prodigy is a boy's baby name of Latin origin, from the Latin prodigium, meaning 'omen' or 'portent,' and by extension an extraordinary person of remarkable talent or ability. Hip-hop artist Prodigy of Mobb Deep made this name synonymous with lyrical genius and street-level authenticity.
Prodigy is an aspiration name of the boldest kind — it names a child as someone extraordinary before they've taken their first step. Bold, singular, and impossible to overlook.
