Karron
Karron Origin and Meaning
Karron is a feminine name with Scottish and Celtic origins, likely a variant spelling of Karen or Karon. The name may derive from the Gaelic 'ciar' meaning 'dark' or could be related to Katherine, ultimately meaning 'pure.' This uncommon spelling variation emerged during the mid-20th century when alternative spellings became fashionable. Karron offers a distinctive twist on more common names while maintaining familiar sounds. Though never achieving widespread popularity, it has appeared consistently in small numbers, particularly in Scotland and among Scottish diaspora communities. The double 'r' gives the name a flowing quality when spoken, while the 'on' ending provides a solid conclusion. Parents might choose Karron for its subtle uniqueness while still honoring Celtic heritage.
