Origin: German

Meaning: Noble; Lion-strength

Underestimate Lon if you dare. A short form of Alonzo, this masculine name is brimming with fierce potential. Primarily of Spanish origin, Lon means "noble," though its compelling roots in the German Leonard paint a more powerful picture still. Composed of the German elements leo, "lion," and hardu, "brave" or "hardy," Lon embraces the meaning "lion-strength." All signs point to little Lon as being a small but mighty force, proving big things truly do come in tiny packages.
