About Jeyson
Jeyson is a masculine name that represents a modern variation of Jason, with distinctive spelling that gives it a contemporary edge. The original name Jason derives from Greek mythology, where he was the heroic leader of the Argonauts who quested for the Golden Fleece. The name means 'healer' in its Greek origins. Jeyson emerged as parents sought unique spellings of traditional names, primarily gaining recognition in Hispanic and Latin American communities. The alternative spelling with 'ey' instead of 'a' creates a more international feel while maintaining the familiar pronunciation. While less common than the traditional Jason, Jeyson has established its own identity and has been gradually increasing in usage since the early 2000s.
Pronounced JAY-sun.
As of October 2026, Jeyson ranked #4938 for boys in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #2723 for boys in 2002.
