About Weston
Weston has gone from being a Jane Austenish British surname to a first name with a relaxed American western cowboy feel. Along with other trendy 'n'-ending boys’ names, Weston is rising in popularity, and is now more popular than ever, ranking in the Top 100 since 2021.
Weston also has a glimmer of creative appeal via its connection to the great photographer Edward Weston. Nicolas Cage chose Weston for his son back in 1990, when it was much more unusual; The Office's Jenna Fischer used it for her baby more recently.
More than 4000 baby boys were named Weston last year, with variations Westin and Westyn also ranking in the US Top 1000. Cousin name Easton is also popular.
Weston is also given to girls, where it ranks #11867 in the US.
Pronounced WES-tun.
