Dionne is French in Origin.
Dionne blends Greek myth with French style. Dionne is a feminine given name and French-Canadian surname; as a given name in English it's often understood as a variant of Dione or of Dion (from Dionysios/Dionysia). From Greek roots dios “of Zeus” leading to Dione “goddess”; or from Dionysios “follower of Dionysus.” Thus meanings range from “divine; of Zeus” to “follower of Dionysus.” The surname Dionne arose in France and Québec as a patronymic/diminutive of Dion and also from toponyms such as Dion and Dions.
As a given name it came into wider use in the mid-20th century - prominently after the Canadian Dionne Quintuplets (1934) and the success of singer Dionne Warwick in the 1960s - seeing particular popularity in North America and among African American families. Variants and related forms include Dione, Dion, Deon/Deonne, Dionna/Dyonna, and the cognates Denis/Dennis and Denise via the same Dionysian root. Alternate spellings: Dyonne, Dionné.
