Meaning & origin
Cono is a rare given name with an uncertain etymology, likely of Irish origin as a short form of Connor or a variant of Conán. It first appeared in U.S. records in 1916, but never ranked among the top 1000 names. Its peak year was 1920, indicating mild popularity in that era before falling into obscurity. The name's trajectory has been stable but extremely sparse, with no top states recorded for its use. Parents seeking an uncommon name with Irish roots might consider Cono a distinctive choice.
Cono may derive from the Irish name Conán, a diminutive of 'cú' meaning 'hound' or 'wolf', or it could be a short form of Connor, which itself means 'lover of hounds'. In Italian contexts, it might be a given name or a surname from the region of Campania. Its use in the United States peaked in the early 20th century, particularly in 1920, though it has always been rare.
