Deandrae
Deandrae Origin and Meaning
Deandrae is a masculine name that appears to combine elements of 'De-' or 'Dean' with '-andre' or '-andrae.' The 'Andre' component derives from the Greek 'Andreas,' meaning 'manly' or 'brave,' ultimately from 'aner' (man). The 'De-' prefix might be a creative addition or possibly related to names like Deandre, which combines French 'de' (of) with 'Andre.' The spelling with '-ae' ending represents a distinctive variation that emerged primarily in the United States in the latter part of the 20th century. The name follows the pattern of combining recognizable name elements to create something both familiar and unique. While not among the most common names, Deandrae has maintained a consistent presence in naming records since its emergence. The name exemplifies the trend toward longer, more melodic masculine names that gained popularity during this period.
