Deonn is a distinctive and unique given name of American origin, derived from African roots. It is believed to be a variant spelling of Deon, which itself is a short form of the Greek name Dionysius, meaning "follower of Dionysus," the god of wine and revelry in Greek mythology. In some instances, Deonn may also be associated with the Irish surname O'Deon, which translates to "descendant of Deon." The name has gained popularity in recent years as parents seek out uncommon yet meaningful names for their children. It is often used for both boys and girls due to its unisex nature.
Deonn had 13 babies named between 1953 and 1971, with a gap of 18 years between the birth years recorded.
