Magon, of Latin origin, is an uncommon yet intriguing given name. It is derived from the Roman family name Magius, which was possibly of Etruscan origin. The name Magon was borne by several figures in ancient Carthage, including Hamilcar Barca's brother and general, Magon, who played a significant role in the First Punic War.
"The name Magon experienced a notable peak in popularity between 1986 and 1989, with 22 births in 1986 and 20 births in 1989. However, it seems to have fallen out of favor afterwards, as seen by the declining numbers from 1990 onwards."
