Diego is Spanish for James. There is a little controversy about the origin, but James is is. The book of The Bible known as James is Santiago (simply Saint James), which has become a Spanish name in itself. So technically, the cities Santiago, Chile, and San Diego, California, have the same name, meaning (St. James), though San Diego is named after Franciscan priest Diego de Alcala, according to Wiki.

The proper name is spelled Diego.

(a presumptive Spanish equivalent of James, from Hebrew Ya'akov or Jacob, hence Iago and Santiago or Saint James).

Diego garcia doesn't have another meaning in English, since it is an English word decribing an atoll located in the south of the Equator, a tourist attraction.
