Beamon is English in Origin.

Beamon is a transferred English surname used as a given name. It stems chiefly from the occupational surname Beeman/Beaman, from Old English beo "bee" + mann "man," denoting a beekeeper. Spelling variants proliferated in Middle and Early Modern English, yielding Beamon, Beaman, Beeman, Beman, and Beemon; regional accents often determined the vowel. Though sometimes confused with the Norman toponym Beaumont ("beautiful mountain"), Beamon belongs to the beekeeper line.

As a first name, Beamon surfaces sporadically in Britain and North America from the 18th century onward, following the fashion for surnames as given names and, in some cases, to preserve a maternal family name. It remains rare but familiar as a surname thanks to Olympic long jumper Bob Beamon, which lends contemporary recognition. Short forms include Bee or Mon; feminine use is unusual. Meaning centers on industriousness and sweetness through its bee roots.
