Lady or mistress; also a diminutive of Dion
Dondi is primarily used as a diminutive form of the Italian name Dionigi or the Spanish name Dionisio, both derived from Dionysius. It gained brief visibility in the mid-20th century United States due to a popular comic strip character. While often used as a nickname, it occasionally stands alone as a given name.
