Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this boys' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Dionte 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.
