Gileon is a rare masculine name that may represent a variant of Gideon, the biblical judge whose name means 'feller' or 'hewer' in Hebrew. It could also relate to names beginning with 'Gil' (which can mean 'joy' in Hebrew or relate to 'gillian' meaning 'youthful' in Latin). The unusual spelling and pronunciation give this name a distinctive quality that sets it apart from more common biblical names. Gileon's three-syllable pattern creates a rhythmic, rolling sound with a strong masculine ending. This extremely uncommon name offers the appeal of biblical connections while maintaining uniqueness. Its rarity means that a child named Gileon would likely be the only one in his community, appealing to parents seeking a name with traditional roots but a distinctive presentation.
