  1. It is a beautiful and rare international name

  2. I chose Diane because that was my mothers name. And when I was 16 I lost my mom to cancer. My daughter was born on June 17 my mom passed away June 20,1997

    • My name is Diane & I was named after my Mom which I always hated. But since she died it’s my honor to carry her name on.

  3. I named my little girl after my dear friend who has been battling breast cancer. She is an amazing woman with a strong heart for God. She’s tough, no nonsense yet so thoughtful, sweet and kind. When the nurses placed the baby on me, I knew she needed a strong name so I picked Diane after my strong and brave friend.
