The name Damson is a boy's name of English origin meaning "son of Adam; plum of Damascus".

A word name, a color name, and a brand name, Damson is associated with a type of fruit, a shade of purple and the fashion brand, Damson Madder. While some may find it far too close to the word damn to be used as a name, others may find the wordy feel and the stylish -son ending appealing.
 
Currently a rare choice, it is borne by actor Damson Idris, though in his case, it is a short form of Adamson, a surname style choice, meaning "son of Adam" or more figuratively, "son of the red earth". 
 
As such, it could be pronounced like the fruit (DAM-zuhn) or more like the end of Adamson (DAM-suhn).
