Melvon is of African origin, derived from the Malinke tribe's word 'Mel' meaning 'king', and 'Von' meaning 'to rule'. It is a distinctive name that adds an elegant touch to any list.
Melvon seems to have been a popular name for children born between 1916 and 2003, with the highest number of births recorded in 1930 at eight babies named Melvon that year. There were notable gaps from 1927 to 1928 and again from 1931 to 1996 where no children named Melvon were born, suggesting a decline in popularity during those periods before picking up again significantly in 1997 with seven births.
