Kanon is of Japanese origin, translating to 'sound' or 'melody'. It's derived from the Japanese word 'ka', meaning music, and 'non', which signifies sound waves. This name has gained popularity in recent years due to its unique sound and cultural significance.
"Kanon experienced a notable increase in popularity as a baby name starting around the late 1990s, peaking between 2014 to 2016 with over 120 births each year. However, there's been a decline since then, with fewer than 60 births recorded annually from 2020 onwards."
