While Yvonne is French in origin and not unusual in the English speaking world, I believe Nyvonne may possibly be African or influenced by African culture. Looking around on the internet did not offer a solid definition, the name did seem more common among people with non-English or European last names.

Nyvonne looks like a contemporary creation based on Yvonne. Have you asked your parents or other relatives if they know anything about your name or why it was chosen?
