Yvonne
Yvonne /ɪˈvɒn/ is a female given name. It is French in origin, and is the female form of Yvon, which is derived from the Germanic name Yves. It is from the Germanic word iv, meaning "yew". Since yew wood was used for bows, Ivo may have been an occupational name meaning "archer".
This name first arrived in England with the Norman invasion, along with variations such as Yvette, and male versions of the same name. It was the most popular of all of these names, but eventually died out from usage. It was reintroduced into English-speaking countries in the early 20th century, when it was very popular. It is currently 173rd in the USA popular names list, but is an uncommon name in younger generations. It has also lost popularity in France, where in 1900, it was the 7th most popular name.
Yvonne has several name days: 29 May in Sweden and 8 August in Norway. Common variations of this name include Evonne, Evone, Yvonette, Ivonette, Ywona, Iwona, Yvonnie, Yvon.
People with this name
This is a list of notable people with the first name Yvonne:
Yvonne (cow)
Yvonne is a brown-white cow who in 2011 escaped from her farmer in Mühldorf, Germany, attracting media attention as she hid in the woods for many weeks. Farmers, police, and animal-rights activists were unable to find or capture her.
History
Yvonne, born in 2005, lived as a dairy cow for a mountain farmer in the Liesertal valley in the Austrian Alps. In March 2011 she was sold to a farmer in Aschau am Inn, Bavaria, who planned to fatten and slaughter her. On 24 May 2011 Yvonne escaped from her electric-fenced pasture and hid in woods near the villages of Zangberg and Stefanskirchen. After her escape, Yvonne was bought by animal-rights activist Michael Aufhauser, who intended to capture her and transport her to his animal sanctuary, Gut Aiderbichl, a former farm in Deggendorf, Bavaria.
Multiple techniques were used to find her and draw her out of hiding. Searchers used infrared cameras, a helicopter, and used other cows as lures.
As all attempts to capture Yvonne failed, the cow received increasing attention from the mass media in Germany and Austria and later all over the world. Bild tabloid offered a reward of ten thousand euros for her recovery.
Yvonne (musical)
Yvonne is a musical comedy first performed in 1926. It was written by Percy Greenbank, Jean Gilbert and Vernon Duke (at that time still using his birth name of Dukelsky).
Yvonne was first staged at Daly's Theatre, London, in May 1926, by the company originally created by impresario George Edwardes. Ivy Tresmand took the title role, and Arthur Pusey also starred. Other cast members included Maria Minetti, Mark Lester, Horace Percival, and American dancer Hal Sherman. After its London run, Edwardes' theatre company took the production on tour throughout the UK.
The plot concerned Yvonne, the daughter of an academic, who impersonates a music hall singer. The most successful musical number in the score was "Teach me to Dance", with music by Marc Anthony and lyrics by Harry Graham. Copyright: MCMXXV by Ascherwood, Hopwood & Crew Ltd.

Down around her shoulders
Yellow vest
Summer dress
And a smile
Someone said they thought
that she looked older
But she's seventeen
And I wish that
She was mine
You want to see the way
She looked at me
Y.V.O.N.N.E.
Strangers come and go
Through Salthill summers
Each year see's new faces
In the sunshine
But mercy girl Yvonne
She was my favourite
She's seventeen
And I wish that
She was mine
You want to see the way
She looked at me
