Daeshon

Meaning of Daeshon

Daeshon, pronounced day-SHAWN (/deɪˈʃən/), is a contemporary American male name formed by pairing the prefix De– with the Anglicized Shawn. Shawn ultimately derives from the Gaelic Seán and the Hebrew Yochanan, meaning “God is gracious,” so Daeshon combines a modern naming pattern with a classic etymological origin. U.S. Social Security Administration records show its first appearances in the early 1990s, a peak around 2000 with twenty births (ranked 795), and a gradual stabilization into single-digit yearly occurrences and rankings in the 800s and 900s—six babies were named Daeshon in 2014. Its two-syllable clarity and understated rhythm appeal to parents seeking a name that feels both familiar and fresh. The result is a distinctive choice whose rarity means that in most settings only one Daeshon is likely to answer the roll call.
