History & Origin

The parent word-name Diamond reaches back through Old French to Greek adamas, 'unconquerable', a nod to the stone's legendary hardness. As a girls' name Diamond flourished in the late twentieth century, and Diamon drops the final d for a softer, phonetic look.

It appears in American records from the mid-nineteen-eighties into the twenty-tens, cresting in the early nineties alongside the gemstone-name vogue. It reads as a variant of that era and remains rare.
