Diona is a first name for girls.
Recently, the name Diona has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one girl in 100,000 has been named Diona. That means that a girl named Diona is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name her whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Diona.
If your name is Diona your parents may be very proud to let their daughter swim against the tide: The name Diona never ranked higher than position 1,846 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their daughter Diona. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1969 to choose the name more often than usual - only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Diona because that was several decades ago - unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in the neighborhood.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Diona was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
As in the last century, Diona still proves to be very exceptional. In 2022, for example, it was not given once in the entire U.S. - or, to be more precise, it was given at most four times, because names given less than five times in one year are not included in the official statistics. So if you know someone named Diona who was born in 2022, please let us know - we would be very interested in hearing about it so that we can provide you with even more accurate statistics.
It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Diona in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 139 women and girls named Diona, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 139 women and girls named Diona live in no more than 8 different states, including for example California, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri and New York. In all other 41 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Diona. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Diona lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Diona and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Diona relative to its female population is California. And even there, only one in 257,119 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Diona.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter D is quite common as an initial letter for girls' names. To be precise, 5.6% of all girls' names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of girls' names, by the way, are A, S and M.
With five letters, the name Diona is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
Therefore: As 5.6% of all girls' names start with D, this initial letter occurs much more often than all 26 letters on average. And maybe interesting to know: of all the names that begin with a D, Dorothy is the most common.
If your name is Diona and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
So that everyone really understands you when you have to spell the name Diona, you can simply say:
Dinosaur
Igloo
Orange

In the navy, sailors of two ships might wave flags to each other to send messages. A sailor holds two flags in specific positions to represent different letters.
