Meaning & origin

Demone is a rare American name that first entered U.S. birth records in 1967. It reached its peak usage in 1975, but has never ranked among the top 1000 names. The name's trajectory has been stable over recent decades, suggesting it remains a highly unusual choice. Its origins are unclear: it may be a creative respelling of Damon or a modern coinage influenced by the word 'demon'. Due to its rarity, no top states or notable bearers are associated with the name.

Demone first appears in U.S. records in the late 1960s, likely as a respelling or variant of Damon (from Greek 'Damōn', meaning 'to tame') or as a modern coinage influenced by the word 'demon'. Its use has remained uncommon and sporadic, with no clear historical or linguistic root.
