Onne is Dutch, Finnish, Frisian in Origin.
Onne is a Frisian and Low German masculine name, likely a short form of Germanic names with the element aud/ōd “wealth, fortune,” the source of Otto and Udo. In Frisian, such clipped forms often take -e, giving Onne alongside Onno. Some scholars instead link the group Onno/Enno/Onne to agin “edge, sword,” but the “wealth” reading is more common.
Recorded in medieval Friesland and northern Germany, the name survives chiefly in the Dutch North, with modern visibility via photographer Onne van der Wal. Variants and cognates include Onno, Ono, Oene, Enno, Otto, Udo, and Odo; related surnames are Onnes and Onnema. The usual meaning offered to parents is “prosperity” or “riches,” though “edge (of a sword)” is sometimes cited in scholarly notes.
