History & Origin

Carmeron is a variant spelling of Cameron, the Scottish surname from cam sron, 'crooked nose.' The extra r softens it toward Carmen in look, but the meaning and Highland-clan background stay with Cameron, one of the great surname-names of the late twentieth century.

Carmeron was never common, given to only about fourteen boys a year around 1987 as Cameron itself climbed. A boy named Carmeron then is in his late thirties today, his spelling a small variation on a name that would soon become very familiar.

Did you know? Cameron, and so Carmeron, began as a Highland clan name from cam sron, literally 'crooked nose,' a blunt old nickname turned dignified surname.
