Tony

Tony can be considered to be a shorter version of Anthony. Anthony comes from the Latin 'antonius' which is also an ancient Roman household name. This name is formed of two Greek elements, ‘anti’ meaning ‘against’ and ‘onios’ meaning ‘for sale’. Antonius also can be considered to originate from the Greek name Anteon, the son of the mighty Hercules. The meaning of Tony is ‘the priceless one’, ‘inestimable worth’. Saint Anthony is the patron saint of the country Portugal as well as of lost things. He also is called Anthony of Lisbon and Anthony of Padua. It is said that Saint Anthony once went to Rimini to preach but was not heard by the heretics. Thus, he went to the shoreline and started preaching at the shore. As he preached, a large group of fishes gathered around him and this miracle captured everyone’s attention and they began to listen to his preachings. The character Robert Downey Jr. plays in the 'Marvel' franchise, Tony Stark/Ironman, is a well-known Tony around the world.

Lucky

Tony lucky number is 2.

Within numerology, the 2 vibration assumes the role of the mediator, creating harmony by bringing together dissonant forces through compassion, empathy, and kindness. 2 is linked to psychic abilities and intuition, and if this number appears as a Life Path or Destiny Number, the individual will be astute to subtle energy shifts and emotional nuances. Because 2 is so sensitive, it is very conflict-averse, and can end up feeling under-appreciated or unacknowledged. 2 must avoid seeking external validation and, instead, realize that perfect equilibrium needed already exists within.
