Duane is a given name for a male. Its origin is in the northern British Isles, and is derived from "D'Wain," meaning "of Wagons." Modern forms include Duane (as in Duane Allman of southern rock group the Allman Brothers) and Dwayne (as in Dwayne Wayne, a character on the American sitcom "A Different World.") In the United States, the spelling Duane is typically associated with white, commonly Southern, Americans. The spelling Dwayne is typically favored by African-Americans, who also employ creative variants such as Dwane, D'Wan, and DeWayne.
