The name Damond is a unique and distinguished choice for a baby boy. Pronounced as DAY-muhnd (/ˈdeɪmənd/), this name is a variation of Damon, which has Greek origins meaning "to tame" or "subdue." Despite its relatively low occurrence in recent years, with only six newborns named Damond in the United States in 2023, it has maintained a consistent presence since the 1960s. The name experienced its peak popularity in the late 1970s, ranking as high as 906th in 1975. Damond carries an air of strength and resilience, making it an appealing option for parents seeking a name that is both classic and uncommon. Its association with the more widely recognized Damon lends it an aura of familiarity while still standing out as a distinctive choice.
