Colmon

Colmon may refer to several things. As a given name, Colmon is an Irish masculine given name. It is an anglicized form of the Old Irish name Colmán, which is derived from "col" meaning "little" and "m an" meaning "member." This name was borne by numerous Irish saints, including Saint Colmán of Cloyne, a 6th-century bishop and poet, and Saint Colman of Lindisfarne, an Irish monk who was Bishop of Lindisfarne in the 7th century.

In the context of surnames, Colmon is less common but may exist as a variant or derivative of other names. It is also possible for "Colmon" to be a place name in various regions, although specific prominent locations bearing this exact name are not widely documented. The meaning and origin of such place names would depend on the etymology of the region in which they are located. Without further context, "Colmon" most frequently points to the historical and ecclesiastical significance of the given name in Ireland.
