Marlon is a masculine given name. According to the Oxford Dictionary of First Names, the popularity of Marlon Brando led to general awareness of the name (his father was also named Marlon), though the origin of the name is not known.[1] Speculation places the name's origin in France as a derivative of Marc.[1]
