Ramonita is of Spanish origin, meaning 'little ram'. It is a feminine form of Ramón, which itself is derived from Raymond, a Germanic name consisting of the elements 'raed' meaning 'counsel' and 'man', thus translating to 'wise protection'. The name Ramonita was quite popular during the late 19th to mid-20th centuries, particularly among Spanish-speaking communities. It is often associated with warmth and familiarity, due in part to its diminutive nature. However, it remains relatively uncommon today, making it a unique choice for those looking for an unusual yet endearing name.
The name Ramonita experienced varied popularity throughout the years with peaks in the late 1950s and early 1960s, notably reaching a high of 28 births in 1958. However, it declined significantly by the mid-1970s, dropping to as low as 5 births per year from 1984 onwards. Overall, Ramonita was given to 522 babies over these years.
