Rabon is an uncommon but distinctive given name of American origin, derived from the Hebrew word "raban," which means "many." It gained popularity during the mid-20th century in the United States, particularly among African Americans. The name Rabon is often associated with notable individuals such as Rabon Martin, a former NFL player who was known for his impressive athletic prowess and sportsmanship. Despite its limited prevalence, Rabon remains an unique and memorable choice for a first name.
"Rabon was popularly named during the early to mid-20th century, peaking around the late 1930s with a high of 32 births in 1938. After World War II, usage declined significantly but remained steady with several years seeing 5 or more births until it dropped off entirely by the late 1980s."
