Taron is an uncommon, yet striking given name of Welsh origin. It means 'thunder' in Welsh, reflecting its powerful and resonant nature. The name gained some popularity through the character Taron Egerton, a British actor known for his roles in films like 'Kingsman: The Secret Service' and 'Rocketman'. Despite its rarity, Taron carries a strong and distinctive presence, much like its thunderous namesake.
The name Taron experienced peaks in popularity during the late 1980s with a significant high of 22 births in 1982 and another peak of 11 births in 1985. After that, its popularity declined steadily, though it did have several years (1986-1994) with around 5-6 births each year. Overall, from 1969 to 1996, there were a total of 90 babies named Taron.
