I am hoping you ladies can help me with this:
My mom's middle name is Dianne, she gave me the same middle name but spelled it Diane. I would like to pass this middle name on to my child if it's a girl, but I would like to change the spelling to keep that tradition going as well. Is there any other (classy) way to spell Diane?
I have checked out various name sites, but I haven't had any luck.
TIA!
Re: Different spelling for mn Diane
I'm 100% sure the only way to spell Diane is Diane.
What don't you like about the spelling? Have you considered using Diana?
This is what I was going to say.
I agree with PPs. The only way I'd change it from Diane is if I were going to use Diana.
The only other possible way I can think of would be to drop the "e" from your mom's spelling and use Diann, but I think that looks stupid.

Yup, this is what I was going to suggest, too.
However, Dyan Cannon spells her differently. If you're doing it to honor your mom, use her spelling.
