Ximen

Ximen is not, as many think, the Spanish variation of Simon. It is derived from the medieval Basque name Semen (emphasis on the second syllable, but still completely unusable in the English-speaking world). It eventually gave way to many familiar Spanish names of today, including Jimeno and Ximena.

Pronounced he-MEN.

As of October 2026, Ximen ranked #14131 in US births in 2024 SSA.
