Bohannon, pronounced boh-HAN-un (/boʊˈhænən/), is an anglicized variant of the Irish surname Ó Buachanan, literally “descendant of Buachanan,” a name once linked to a Gaelic clan of herdsmen. In the United States, Bohannon has surfaced as a given name in recent years, with Social Security figures showing a steady, low-frequency presence—peaking at rank 891 in 2018 and registering 14 newborns (910th) in 2024. Its crisp vowel-consonant pattern suits both English and Spanish phonetics, ofreciendo un nombre fuerte que une la herencia celta y la tradición latina. This modest but consistent usage suggests appeal for parents seeking a distinctive, culturally resonant choice.
