Dameon Origin and Meaning
The name Dameon is a boy's name.
Dameon is a masculine name that serves as a variant spelling of Damian or Damien. It derives from the Greek name 'Damianos,' which relates to 'to tame' or 'to subdue.' With roots in early Christian history, the name became known through Saint Damian, who with his brother Cosmas, was a physician who provided medical services without charge. Dameon gained modest popularity in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s as parents sought unique spellings of traditional names. The alternative spelling gives the name a slightly contemporary feel while maintaining its classical roots. Though less common than Damian, Dameon has maintained steady, if modest, usage in English-speaking countries.
