Simone: meaning and origin

Behind the Name calls Simone the French feminine form of Simon, and lists it in French, English, German, Dutch, Danish and Portuguese. Wikipedia says Simone and Simona are given names that may be masculine or feminine depending on the language: originating from the Greek translation of the Hebrew name Shimon, and masculine in Italian but feminine in French and English.

Nicknames and variants

Wikipedia lists Simonne as a feminine spelling and Simona as the feminine form widespread across Europe, with Symone as another variant. Behind the Name notes that the masculine Italian Simone is listed as a separate name. Most Simones use the name whole.

Behind the Name names the French feminist and philosopher Simone de Beauvoir (1908 to 1986) as a famous bearer, along with the American gymnast Simone Biles, born in 1997. Wikipedia’s disambiguation page also lists Simone Mendes, born in 1984, a Brazilian singer-songwriter.

Simone never appeared in a Social Security top-200 decade table, from the 1880s to the 2010s. Behind the Name’s US chart has it in the top 1,000 for 70 years between 1937 and 2025, best at 311th in 1988. In Europe it is stronger: Germany ranked it 20th in 1978 and Italy 50th in 2024.
