Deyton Origin and Meaning

The name Deyton is a girl's name.

Deyton is an unusual feminine name with modern American origins. It appears to be a contemporary creation, possibly a feminine variant of Dayton (a place name) or a blend of popular name elements like the prefix 'De-' with the ending '-ton.' The name has a strong, slightly androgynous quality that fits with current trends toward gender-neutral naming. Deyton has a crisp, modern sound while still being relatively easy to pronounce and spell. It remains quite rare in usage statistics, making it an appealing choice for parents seeking a distinctive name that isn't commonly heard but still has a contemporary American feel.
