Deonte, a modern American boy's name, has an unknown meaning and a mysterious feel. It follows the trend of names that start with De-, which can be traced back to the surnames of French aristocratic families, lending the name a sophisticated feel. Deonte might also be a combination of the name Deon, which means "follower of Dionysus," and Dante, which means "steadfast" and "enduring." The combination of the drama of a Greek god known for his love of wine and revelry and the name of one of the world's most renowned poets means that Deonte is a name that'll make anyone sit up and pay attention.
