What is the meaning of the name Edmond ?

The baby name Edmond is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈɛdmənd/ (ED-mənd).

Edmond is English in Origin.

Edmond is the French-influenced form of the Old English name Edmund, from ead ("wealth, fortune, prosperity") and mund ("protector, guardian"), giving the sense of "protector of prosperity" or "wealth guardian." The -o- spelling traveled through Norman French into English records and is especially common in French contexts.

Borne by Saint Edmund the Martyr, a 9th-century king of East Anglia, the name endured through medieval England; the Edmond form gained favor in early modern France and later in the Anglophone world. Literary and cultural visibility comes from Edmond Rostand and the protagonist Edmond Dantès in Dumas’s The Count of Monte Cristo. International variants include Edmund (English), Edmondo (Italian), Edmundo (Spanish/Portuguese), Éamon/Éamonn (Irish), and Edmundas (Lithuanian); diminutives: Ed, Eddie, Ned, and Ted.
