History & Origin

Simonne is a French feminine form of Simon, closely related to Simone, with the doubled n marking its French styling. Simon descends from the Hebrew Shim'on, 'he has heard', long read as 'God has heard'. Simonne appears in United States birth records in the early twentieth century, often in French-heritage and Louisiana families, and reached its modest high around 1916, never common at a couple dozen girls a year.

A girl named Simonne then would be a great-grandmother today, and the spelling reads as a refined, French-inflected vintage choice. It has not returned in English-speaking use, where Simone is the familiar form, but Simonne keeps a graceful continental air.

Did you know? The doubled n in Simonne is a French flourish; the name is a sister spelling of Simone, both feminines of the biblical Simon.
