Conlon is an uncommon, yet distinctive given name of Irish origin. It is derived from the Gaelic surname 'Ó Cluanaigh', which translates to 'descendant of Cluain'. The name Cluain itself means 'meadow' in Gaelic. Thus, Conlon can be interpreted as a meadowland or grassy plain. This unique name offers a sense of nature and tranquility. While not widely known, it has been used throughout history and continues to be employed by families who appreciate its rare charm.
"Conlon saw a dip in its popularity between 2003 and 2014, with only half as many babies named Conlon born in the latter year compared to the former."
