History & Origin

Consepcion is a respelling of the Spanish Concepcion, 'conception,' honoring the Immaculate Conception of Mary. Borne largely by Mexican-American and Spanish-speaking families in the early twentieth century, it was often carried with pet forms like Concha or Chonita.

It was never common in the United States, given to only about fifteen girls a year even at its peak around 1928. A girl named Consepcion then would belong to her great-grandmother's generation.

Did you know? Like Dolores, Mercedes, and Guadalupe, Consepcion is a Marian title turned into a first name - each one naming an aspect or feast of the Virgin Mary rather than a person.
