Clemont is of French origin, derived from the Latin word "climentius," which means merciful or gentle. It is an uncommon given name that gained some popularity during the mid-20th century in France but remains relatively rare today. The name Clemont typically does not have any standard diminutives or nicknames, though some creative variations may include Clem or Monty for those who prefer shorter versions.
Clemont was a somewhat popular baby name from 1917 to 1920, with five births each year during that period. However, it seems to have been quite uncommon for the next few decades as no births were recorded between 1921 and 1970. There was a single spike in popularity in 1971 with five births again. In total, there were twenty babies named Clemont over the course of these years.
