Denise is the French feminine of Dennis — from the Greek Dionysios ("follower of Dionysus," the god of wine and ecstasy). Christmas Jones in The World Is Not Enough (1999); The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (2019-2020). Denise Faye — choreographer; Chicago (2002 film). Denise Scott Brown (born 1931) — Zambian American architect and urban planner — one half of the husband-wife firm Venturi Scott Brown; the 2016 AIA Gold Medal was the first time the award was given to a husband-wife duo.
Denise does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Denise reduce to 2, The Peacemaker. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
