Etymology

Inherited from Old English dēacon, diācon, from Latin diāconus, from Ancient Greek δῐᾱ́κονος (dĭā́konos); the form /ˈdɛ̝ːknə/ is possibly after Old French diacne, from the same Latin source, though compare Old Norse djákni besides djákn. See: Latin Nouns 'diāconus', Old Norse Nouns 'djákni'.
