History & Origin

Evone is a phonetic variant of Yvonne, the French feminine form of Yves, from a Germanic word meaning yew. Written to match its sound, Evone spread as an easier-looking spelling of the French favorite.

It always trailed Yvonne, given to only a couple dozen girls a year at most, thinning out after mid-century. A woman named Evone around its late-nineteen-fifties showing would be in her late sixties today.

Did you know? Yvonne, the parent of Evone, is the feminine of Yves, and both trace back to the yew tree favored by ancient bow-makers.
