Re: Meaning of the first name "Diancy"
I’m also named Diancy. I haves traced the name to late 1600’s in New York area. There is a hamlet in France named Diancy. My family came from England and my name has been passed down through generations.

It's also recorded as Diancie. The village doesn't seem a coincidence as Diancy and Dianci are recorded surnames, but the name may be a contraction of something originally longer
