camaron is Scottish Gaelic in Origin.

Camaron is a modern, Spanish-influenced spelling of the Scottish surname-given name Cameron, widely used for boys and girls. Cameron derives from Scottish Gaelic cam “bent, crooked” + sròn “nose,” yielding the traditional meaning “crooked nose.” As a transferred surname, Cameron entered given-name use in the 19th century and surged in the late 20th century; spellings such as Camron, Camren, Cameran, Camryn, Kameron, and Kamron circulated alongside the Hispanic-friendly Camaron and the accented Camarón.

In Spanish, camarón means “shrimp,” and the celebrated flamenco singer Camarón de la Isla helped popularize the form as a nickname; however, when chosen as a baby name, Camaron usually reflects the Cameron lineage rather than the crustacean. Diminutives include Cam, Cami/Cammie, and Ron. The name sees use in the United States and Latin America, appealing to bilingual families seeking a cross-cultural twist on classic Cameron.
