Waldron is an uncommon given name of American origin, derived from Old German roots. It is composed of two elements: 'wald' meaning 'forest', and '-run', a short form of the name 'Raginhard'. Thus, Waldron translates to "powerful in battle". Despite its historic roots, it is not one of the more popular names in modern times.
The name Waldron had a peak in popularity during the early years with 13 births recorded in 1915. However, it seems to have declined steadily afterwards, with a consistent decrease in births from 1916 onwards. There was another brief increase around 1920-1922 and again in the late 1940s to early 1950s, but overall, the name has seen a significant drop in popularity over time, with only 5 births recorded in 1957.
