Two Syllable Names for Boys

Lashon derives from Hebrew 'lashon' (לָשׁוֹן) meaning 'tongue' or 'language.' In linguistic contexts, the term has significance in Hebrew traditions where 'lashon hara' refers to improper speech or gossip. As a given name, Lashon emerged in the United States primarily in the 1970s-1980s, possibly reflecting broader trends of adopting words with meaningful connotations as names. Some instances may also represent a variant spelling of names like LaShawn or LaShon, which combine the French prefix 'La' with 'Shawn' (derived from Irish 'Seán'). The name peaked in popularity during the late 1970s but remains relatively uncommon. Its pronunciation typically follows the pattern luh-SHON or LAH-shon.
