History & Origin

Camron descends from the Scottish-flavored English name Cameron, traditionally explained as 'crooked nose'. It is one of several contemporary spellings that also include Kameron and the unisex Camryn and Kamryn. The trimmed spelling keeps the sound while shedding a letter.

Bearers usually appear under the standard Cameron, such as the actors Cameron Mitchell (1918-1994) and Cameron Diaz (born 1972). Camron reads as the same familiar name in leaner dress.

Did you know? Camron is a spelling variant of Cameron, so it keeps the same core meaning of 'crooked nose' while changing the visual style.
