Adisson

Adisson, pronounced uh-DIH-suhn (/əˈdɪsən/), constitutes a unisex given name of English origin, arising as a variant of the Anglo-Saxon patronymic Addison, which denotes “son of Adam.” Its usage in the United States has experienced modest fluctuations since its initial appearance in the late 1990s—first recorded in 1998 with five occurrences (rank 874)—followed by a gradual ascent through the mid-2000s (for example, 16 occurrences in 2007, rank 972), interspersed with intermittent declines and recoveries around the turn of the decade (13 occurrences in 2008, rank 976; 11 in 2010, rank 943; 10 in 2011, rank 937), before stabilizing in the early 2010s and again in the early 2020s within national ranks of 940–960 (7 occurrences, rank 956 in 2014; 6 occurrences, rank 941 in 2021; 9 occurrences, rank 949 in 2023; 7 occurrences, rank 943 in 2024). From a sociolinguistic perspective, Adisson exemplifies the endurance of traditional patronymic nomenclature alongside the contemporary preference for gender-neutral appellations within an Anglo-American cultural framework.
