Ashkon

Ashkon is a first name for boys.

Ashkon – a very rare name!

Recently, the name Ashkon has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one boy in 100,000 has been named Ashkon.

If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Ashkon.
