A - Z Blogging Challenge Y is for Yvonne
Yvonne. No names with Y appear on the family tree but I do have a friend with the name Yvonne. The name is an independently adopted diminutive of the French male name Yves. It was very popular in the 1950's and 1960's. While it comes from Yves, I can't find a meaning for it. Sometimes E is used instead of Y at the start of the name, as with the Australian tennis player, Evonne Cawley. We also have, Yvonne Elliman, a US singer. Yvonne Craig, US actress.
