Melone is in Origin.

Melone (meh-LOH-neh or meh-LOHN) is a rare given name with two plausible roots. In English it most often functions as a creative spelling of Melonie/Melony, themselves variants of Melanie, from Greek Melania "dark, black" (melas). In Italian and German, melone is the common noun "melon," from Latin melo and Greek melopepon "apple-gourd," and the word has also generated the Italian surname Melone; this lexical and onomastic background occasionally influences the given name's use.

As a first name, Melone appears sporadically in late 20th and early 21st-century records, chiefly in English-speaking countries, and is sometimes chosen as a nature-evoking or surname-honoring option. Variants and related forms include Melonie, Melony, Melanie, Meloni, and Melona; short forms like Mel and Loni are common. Depending on the lineage you favor, the name's meaning is interpreted as "dark/black" or "melon; summer fruit, abundance."

Melone is a rare name. It doesn't appear in any of the major national birth registries we track; we found only 55 recorded uses across 19 countries. Expect very few children to share this name.
