This name, which has recently become popular again, is one of the few names with a real unknown origin, except that, some say, it comes from a misspelling of a similar Sioux Indian word, for river.
Other likely possibilities in origin are firstly, from the Greek name Adonia, meaning beautiful Greek girl, this name is twinned with the male form Adonis, who was a Greek god,
or secondly, Adoncia meaning Sweet Spanish Girl.
All things considered, it seems to be a good name to have, and is becoming more popular, as are the variations like Ady, Adonna, and Adonne, all of which are now being used and will no doubt, grow to be more popular.
