The G in GNOME originally stood for GNU, actually.

Gnome is still listed as a GNU package here: https://www.gnu.org/software/software.html

Today, however, Gnome is a rather independent project, with its own GNOME Foundation.

(There was also GNUStep but it was never popular)

Gnome may be (historically), but other DEs like KDE were never associated with it.
