Kayson

Kayson name meaning and origin

Kayson is an alternative spelling of Cason, an English habitational surname originally used by people who lived in Cawston, a village in Norfolk. The village's name was created by combining the Old Norse name Kalfr with the Old English word tun (meaning "settlement" or "town"), giving Cawston the meaning "Kalfr's town."

Kayson is a newly popular name, first entering the top 1,000 baby boy names 2009. Since then, this unique name has grown in popularity each year, and was most popular in 2023, when it ranked No. 278.

While Kayson could be considered a gender-neutral name, it's never ranked among the top 1,000 girl names.
