6-letter words with D as the 1st letter and I as the 6th letter

This fixed pattern leaves just ten tournament-dictionary entries, and none ranks among the 25,000 most frequent English words measured by wordfreq. The examples include DJINNI, DEWANI, and DROMOI. Collins includes all ten, while NWL2023 includes seven and ENABLE includes five, and nine of the ten have a defined entry.

Which D-I word scores the most?

DJINNI leads the Scrabble scores at 14 points. DEWANI, DEGAMI, and DHOOTI each score 10; DECANI and DROMOI score nine. DENARI, DALASI, DUELLI, and DUETTI each score seven, giving you a clear score ladder for the full ten-word set.

The zero common-word count is a practical warning: most entries are specialized rather than familiar vocabulary. A defined entry does not guarantee acceptance in every game. Collins has all ten, but NWL2023 has seven and ENABLE has five, so check your game's word list before playing an unfamiliar form.

How do 6-letter words with D first and I sixth compare?

Changing the final I to S opens the pattern considerably: 305 six-letter words start with D and end in S, compared with 10 ending in I. If the final I is fixed but the first letter can change, the S-first pattern has 39 matches. Check which clue is locked before you rule out a candidate.

Keeping D first and I sixth while moving up to seven letters gives 99 matches. That larger pool contrasts with the ten six-letter forms here, so changing length is another route when the letter positions fit but the word is elusive. The narrow set is best treated as a pattern match, not a list of common vocabulary.
