Davante is a male first name.
There’s a good chance that a boy named Davante in a medium-sized town will be unique. That’s because only a few babies a year are named Davante in all of the US. Only about one in 100,000 boys is named Davante by his parents. In the ranking of most common boys names in recent years, Davante ranks at #4,803. That means there are 4,802 more common boys names, but there are also a few thousand that are even rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Davante.
Davante is a phenomenon of Generation X and Y. Previously, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents.

Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this boys' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Davante really in tune with his generation.

Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter D is a quite popular first letter for boys’ names. That’s because 8.5% of all common boys’ names in the US begin with this letter. Only the first letters J and A are more common for boys' names.
With seven letters, the name Davante has a typical length for first names in the US.
