What are some names with meanings about intelligence and cleverness?

This is for a fanfiction. My first thought was Minerva after the Roman goddess of widom but that just wouldnt suit an eleven year old living in this era. Any ideas, no matter how weird the names are theyll be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Reply:Obviously, you said Minerva, so her Greek counterpart Athena.


Thoth, or Tehuty, Hermes, Mercury, and Odin could all be male names. As they are gods of writing from different cultures. Female ones could be Ma'at, or Seshat. Discordia (Eris) is quite a clever Goddess. (She's the one who rolled the golden apple into the party marked "for the prettiest" in the Illiad)
