Camron Origin and Meaning

The name Camron is a boy's name meaning "crooked nose".

With the increasing popularity of Cameron, we've seen more and more creative spellings—including this one, which may be influenced by rapper Cam'ron. It rose up the US charts during the 90s, however it fell out of favor in 2017. Given to around 80 boys in a recent year, it is far less popular than the classic Cameron — in fact, for every one boy named Camron, there are 66 called Cameron.

Deriving from a Scottish surname made up of the Gaelic elements cam and sròn, Cameron and its variants mean "crooked nose". This likely originated as a nickname, but if you were hoping for a different meaning, there is also the theory that the second part of the name may have come from the Gaelic abhainn meaning "river" or the Welsh bryn meaning "hill".
