Dayvontae is in Origin.

Dayvontae is a modern American given name, most associated with African American naming traditions from the late 20th century. It is often analyzed as a creative blend of Devon/DeVon with the stylish -tae/-té ending seen in names like Shantae and Deontae, with the Day-/Da- prefix adding rhythmic emphasis. Because it is a contemporary coinage, Dayvontae has no single historical meaning; some interpret it through Devon (an English place-name ultimately tied to the ancient Dumnonii tribe, meaning uncertain) or through David (Hebrew “beloved”) by association with the Da- opening, but these are associative rather than etymologically fixed.

Variant spellings include Dayvonte, Dayvonta, DayVontae, Davontae, Devontae, DeVontae, and Vontae; diminutives like Tay or Vontae also occur. Usage rose in the United States during the 1990s–2000s, paralleling broader creative naming patterns and visibility of related forms borne by athletes and entertainers, while remaining distinctive and relatively uncommon.
