Meaning & origin

Chevon first appeared in U.S. birth data in 1964, marking it as a relatively modern name. It reached its peak popularity in 1979, the most popular year for the name among recorded births. Despite this early spike, it has never entered the top 1000 and remains extremely rare, with no measurable current frequency per million births. The name's trajectory has been largely stable since the 1970s, with very few annual occurrences. With no top states and no recognizable ranking, Chevon occupies a niche spot among invented or creatively spelled names from the late 20th century.

Chevon first appeared in U.S. records in 1964. It may be a variant of Chevonne, an anglicized spelling of Siobhán (Irish form of Joan), or a blend of names like Chevy and Devon. More likely, it is a modern invented name without traditional roots.
