Freemont is an uncommon yet distinctive given name of English origin. It is derived from the Old English words 'free' meaning 'peaceful', and 'mund' signifying 'protection'. Therefore, Freemont translates to 'protected by peace'. This name was likely born out of place names in England, such as FreeManton in Derbyshire or FreeMont near York. It is a unisex name but is more commonly used for males. There are no well-known historical figures or celebrities named Freemont, contributing to its unique and uncommon status.
Freemont had a birth rate of about five to six babies per year between 1917 and 1930, with a total of 27 births recorded during this period.
