Carmon

Where Carmon comes from

Carmon hasn't made it into the dictionaries we draw on yet — so for now its story is the one the SSA record tells. Names that spell a familiar sound a new way often live here for a while before anyone writes them down.

Along the way
  1. 1900
    First appearance
    #1,932 among girls, 5 babies — the first year at least five got the name.
  2. 1905
    Peak, #1,420
    8 babies named Carmon — more than any year before or since.
  3. 1907
    The fade
    The first year with half the peak's births.
  4. 2007
    Mostly girls from here
    Until now more boys than girls got the name; from this year it's the other way round, and has stayed that way.
