Reference: Rimmon (2)
Smith
Rim'mon,
a deity worshipped by the Syrians of Damascus, where there was a temple or house of Rimmon.
Rimmon is perhaps the abbreviated form of Hadad-rimmon, Hadad being the sun-god of the Syrians. Combining this with the pomegranate which was his symbol, Hadad-rimmon would then he the sun-god of the late summer, who ripens the pomegranate and other fruits.
