In all the world, Durand (Durand 
, デュラン 
, Дюран 
, and others...) is a common male forename. The first name Durand is habitual in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it is quite a common boy's name, Cameroon, where it is quite a rare masculine name, and France, where it is a rare gender-neutral name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Cameroon, and the United States. More frequently, Durand is the last name as well as the forename.
Durand is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Durand , the operatic character in the opera La bohème by Ruggero Leoncavallo and Durand , the fictional character appearing in the movie « Un cargo pour l'Afrique », A Cargo to Africa.
