Help[Facts] DJANGO
We named our baby boy DJANGO as this name is not frequently used. Also we liked the exotic ring and bite it has. Unfortunately we do not know anything about its origin and meaning. Apparently it is of ROMA (Gypsy) origin, but we're not sure. A very famous gypsy jazz guitar player was DJANGO REINHARDT. Also the spaghetti westerns with DJANGO THE AVENGER were very popular. And there seems to be a DJANGU tribe of Australian aboriginals. But that's all we know. Who can tell us more about DJANGO ?

Yep, I kinda like the name Django better than the name John , too. I was surprised to discover that my life-mate (whose name is John , but he also likes Django better) happens to have some of the musician Django's music in his collection. My life-mate has very eclectic taste in music, and his collection includes the best from every genre.
Congratulations on having chosen such a cool name for your baby! Oh, and don't forget to vote:

I see that someone else liked "Django", too -- unless that was you who voted already. :)

This is one of my favorite names as well! It sounds gutsy and uncommon, and I commend you on your willingness to be innovative.
Unfortunately, beyond being able to confirm that it appears to be of genuinely Rroma origin (the "Dj-" is characteristic, and one Rroma tribe of the Balkans is the "Djamba"), I can't help with the meaning...even after a prolonged search on Google. Sorry!

Hmm...
I have no idea what Django means, but if it is of gypsy origin then a study of the Roma (Gypsy) language would probably lead you to the answers.
This page mentions some names of people who have concerned themselves with the Roma (Gypsy) language. Perhaps you would like to look further into their work:
