Vonn
Meaning of Vonn
The name Vonn is a masculine appellation of ambiguous derivation, often construed as an Anglicized adaptation of the Germanic nobiliary particle “von,” connoting origin or lineage, or alternatively as a phonetic analogue of the Gaelic epithet “Fionn,” signifying fairness or brightness. Its emergence in the United States is recorded intermittently from 1950 onward—beginning with six births (rank 596) in that inaugural year—and continuing through to 2024, when 17 newborns bore the name (rank 907). Pronounced /vɑn/, this monosyllabic form exemplifies a preference within Anglo-American onomastic practice for concise, resonant designations that balance historical resonance with contemporary distinctiveness. Although Vonn has never ascended to the upper echelons of the Social Security Administration’s popularity lists, its sustained presence in the lower tier of annual rankings attests to a quiet, enduring appeal among parents seeking a name that is both succinct and subtly evocative.
