Meaning & origin

Jaymond is a modern American coinage, first recorded in 1989, blending the popular prefix 'Jay' with the traditional name Raymond. Its usage peaked in 1999 but has remained extremely rare, never ranking in the top 1000. The name has been given to fewer than 100 boys in any year. Its trajectory has been stable, with no recent surge in popularity. Jaymond's top states are unknown due to its low frequency, but it is most likely found in states where modern coinages and 'Jay-' starting names are common.

Jaymond is a modern coinage, formed by replacing the initial consonant of the established name Raymond with a 'J'. Raymond itself comes from the Germanic elements 'ragin' (counsel) and 'mund' (protector). The name Jaymond first appeared in the United States in 1989, likely as a blend of the popular names Jay and Raymond, gaining modest use in the 1990s.
