Kayson
Meaning of Kayson
Kayson (pronounced KAY-suhn) is one of those fresh-minted, modern American names that seems to have sprung from the same creative well that gave us Mason and Grayson—think of it as “Kay’s son,” a lively twist on the classic patronymic. First popping onto the U.S. charts in the late 1980s and gathering steady momentum ever since, Kayson carries an easygoing, cowboy-next-door vibe, yet its crisp “K” opening keeps it feeling current and sporty. Parents are drawn to its blend of familiarity and originality: it nods to names like Jason without feeling recycled, and its friendly two-syllable rhythm rolls off the tongue like a sunny greeting. Some hear echoes of the Gaelic “Cason,” meaning “brave,” while others simply like the way it feels ready for both the sandbox and the boardroom. With over a thousand newborn Kaysons arriving each year and climbing, this name is proving that a little creative spark can light up a timeless, boyish charm.
