Put Calmen in the surname box and you will see that there were a few of them whose numbers were issued in Maryland. Next, take Calmen out of the surname box and put Calmen in the first name box. You will get 6 hits.

Furthermore, here is a link to the Rootsweb Worldconnect trees. You will see that there are 88 entries of people with the last name Calmen.

I have never known anyone with Calmen as a first name, but I suspect that people who use it as a firstname probably have an ancestor with that surname. Many first names have come about by first originating as a surname (i.e Madison, Taylor, Kelly etc)
