Des'ree Origin and Meaning

The name Des'ree is a girl's name.

Des'ree is a modern feminine name that gained recognition primarily through the British singer Des'ree, who rose to fame in the 1990s with hits like 'You Gotta Be.' The name appears to be a stylized variation of Desiree, which comes from the French 'désirée' meaning 'desired' or 'longed for.' The distinctive apostrophe gives it a contemporary, unique flair. Des'ree remains relatively uncommon as a first name outside of those inspired by the singer. The name carries musical associations and conveys creativity and individuality. Its connection to the concept of being desired also lends it positive connotations of being valued and cherished.
