History & Origin

Romon is a variant spelling that sits between Ramon and Roman. Ramon, the Spanish form of Raymond, comes from Germanic roots meaning 'counsel' and 'protection,' 'wise protector'; Roman derives from the Latin Romanus, 'of Rome.' Romon borrows from both, and its exact intended parent varies from bearer to bearer.

It was never common, given to only about sixteen boys a year around its peak near 1979. A man named Romon then is in his forties today.

Did you know? Ramon and Roman are the standard forms; Romon is a rarer spelling that leans toward the Spanish Ramon in sound while echoing Roman on the page.
