    My completely made-up sobriquet for Wonder Woman is ...

    "The Pure Heir".

    Works with either origin, could refer to Themyscria or Olympus itself, could refer to her figurative heart or her literal bloodline, not too wordy, nor too obscure.

    Also has that really useful "homophonic atmospheric double entendre" (HADE) aspect, same as her licensing brethren:

    The Pure Heir (Air)
    The Dark Knight (Night)
    The Last Son (Sun)

    Wonder Woman: The Pure Heir.

    I think we should describe Diana as "the Idol of the Amazons", in the same manner that Superman is described as the Last Son of Krypton

    Some people like to say that the Zeus origin made it easier to explain who Diana. Even now fans still call her a demigoddess to explain who she is. I never liked that idea of her being a goddess. A goddess is a deity with power over the world. An authority. That's not what Diana exist for.

    Diana is the proud creation of a legendary people called the amazons, not just their daughter. She was made and trained to represent all their ideals, and grew up in a world that venerated her virtuosity. Pride is inherent to her. An Idol or Icon is to me a word that alludes to both that idea of her being a creation, and how she is representative of aspirations of a culture.

    But when trying to set a tone for her, I think Spirit of Truth sounds nice, and could easily be used for her upcoming videogame.

    'Daughter of the Amazons', 'The Firstborn of the Amazons'.
