Salamon

Salamon is a masculine name that serves as a variant spelling of Solomon, which comes from Hebrew origins meaning 'peace.' Solomon was a biblical king renowned for his wisdom, giving the name strong historical and religious associations. The Salamon spelling reflects variations found in several European languages, particularly Hungarian and other Eastern European traditions. This spelling has never been as common as the standard Solomon in English-speaking countries, making it a distinctive alternative. The name maintains the dignified, wise connotations of Solomon while offering a slightly different phonetic quality and appearance. Salamon might appeal to parents seeking a name with biblical gravitas but with a unique European flair.

Pronounced SAL-uh-mun.

As of October 2026, Salamon ranked #11996 in US births in 2011 SSA, peaked at #4561 in 1961.
