Meaning & origin

Daionna is a modern American name first recorded in Social Security data in 1999. Its peak year of use was 2000, when it saw its highest frequency.

Daionna is a modern American name that first appeared in Social Security records in 1999. It likely arose as a creative spelling or blend of established names such as Diane (from Latin Diana) or Deanna (from Latin Diana) and Donna (Italian for 'lady').
