All around the world, ديوب (Diop 
, ديوب 
, Dayoub 
) is a common primarily masculine, but very seldom feminine given name. The first name ديوب is characteristic of Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Senegal, where it is a common principally boy's, but scarcely feminine name, Gabon, where it is quite a rare male name, and Mauritania. In absolute terms, it most frequently occurs in Senegal, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Syria. More prevalently, ديوب is the last name as well as the forename.
