Kerion is a unique and distinctive given name of Latin origin, derived from the word 'cerium,' meaning 'wax.' It is often associated with wax candles used in ancient Roman religious ceremonies. Historically, the name was borne by several early saints, which has contributed to its rarity and uniqueness today.
"Kerion saw peak popularity with nine births in 1999, followed by consistent but declining trends until 2003 and beyond."
