Wilbon is an American given name of French origin, derived from 'Guillaume' meaning 'will helmet'. It has been used historically but is not currently among the top names chosen for newborns in the United States. The name Wilbon may evoke a sense of strength and determination, reflecting its translation to 'strong-willed' or 'resolute protection', given its association with the French name Guillaume.
"The name Wilbon experienced a steady increase in popularity during the first half of the twentieth century, with a notable spike in the late 1920s to early 1930s, reaching its peak with 9 births in 1930."
