About Caison
Caison is a modern masculine name that has gained modest popularity in the United States since the early 2000s. It appears to be a contemporary variation of names like Carson, Mason, or Kayson, following the popular trend of surnames and two-syllable names ending in '-son' or '-sen.' The name has a strong, current sound while maintaining a certain softness through its initial 'C'. While the exact origins are unclear, Caison may have emerged as a creative spelling of 'Cayson' or as a unique variant of the surname 'Caison,' which has Scottish and English roots. The name appeals to parents seeking something modern and distinctive that still sounds familiar enough to be easily pronounced and remembered. Its relative newness means the name carries little historical or cultural baggage, allowing children to define their own associations with it.
Pronounced KAY-sun.
As of October 2026, Caison ranked #2307 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #1938 in 2022.
