Demond

Demond Origin and Meaning

The name Demond is a boy's name.

Demond likely developed as a variant of Desmond, which originated as an Irish surname derived from "Deas-mumhan" meaning "South Munster." Another possibility is that it emerged as a variant of Raymond, with the prefix "De-" substituted for "Ray-." Records show consistent usage of Demond since at least the mid-20th century in the United States. The name saw its peak popularity in the 1970s but continues to be used. The alteration from Desmond to Demond follows a pattern of phonetic simplification common in naming evolution. Some linguistic sources suggest the name might also have connections to French language influences, though the Irish surname origin remains the most documented etymological path for its root name Desmond.
