Semmone is in Origin.
Semmone is a rare modern spelling of Simone, a name that traces back to Hebrew Shim'on, meaning “he has heard” or “God has heard.” Through Greek Symeon and Latin Simeon/Simon, it spread across Europe; the biblical Simeon appears in both the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament. Simone is masculine in Italian and commonly feminine in French and English, while related forms occur in many languages.
The double-m form Semmone likely emerged in late 20th-century English-speaking communities as a distinctive twist on Simone/Symone/Simonne, keeping the same pronunciation (se-MOHN or se-MOH-nee, by region). Variants and cognates include Simone, Symone, Simonne, Simona, Simon, Simeon, Shimon, Semyon, and Simón (Spanish). Nicknames include Simi, Moni, and Mone. Though seldom recorded in official statistics, Semmone fits contemporary trends toward individualized spellings while preserving a timeless biblical meaning.
Semmone does not appear in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. This usually means it's either extremely rare, a regional/traditional name not captured by official statistics, or a brand-new coinage. Use it knowing your child will almost certainly be the only one in the room.
