Lamon

Meaning of Lamon

Lamon, pronounced LAY-mon (/leɪˈmɒn/), is a masculine name of French-Latin origin derived from the Old French le mont and the Latin mons, meaning “mountain.” The name carries connotations of steadfastness and elevation and also appears as a toponymic surname in northern Italy. In the United States, Lamon has maintained a steady, if modest, presence on the birth charts since the early 20th century—peaking at 268th in the 1909 records and again in the mid-1970s when it reached the mid-600s—and in 2021 it ranked 929th with five newborns bearing the name. Its enduring niche appeal reflects Latin-rooted gravitas and a distinctive yet familiar sound.
