DiAndrea is English, Italian in Origin.

DiAndrea blends the Italian patronymic particle Di (“of/from”) with Andrea, ultimately from Greek Andreas (“manly, brave”). As a phrase in Italian - Di Andrea - it literally means “of Andrea” or “belonging to Andrew,” the basis of the Italian surname D’Andrea. Carried by families in southern Italy since the late medieval period, the surname later traveled across Europe and the Americas.

As a given name in the United States, DiAndrea emerged in the late 20th century, likely influenced by African-American creative naming patterns and by parallel forms such as DeAndre/De’Andre and Andrea. It’s used predominantly for girls, though it remains broadly unisex in origin.
