The condon Surname
condon Name Meaning and History
Irish: Anglicized form of Gaelic Condún, itself a
Gaelicized form of the Anglo-Norman habitational name de
Caunteton. This seems to have been imported from Wales, but
probably derives ultimately from Caunton in Nottinghamshire, which is
named with the Old English personal name Caluno{dh}
(composed of the elements calu ‘bald’ + no{dh}
‘daring’) + Old English tun ‘enclosure’, ‘settlement’.
