History & Origin

Carrson is a present-day respelling of Carson, a Scottish and northern English surname that became a popular unisex first name. Its origin is genuinely uncertain, read either as 'son of Carr' or from a lost place name; either way the meaning passes unchanged into the given name. The extra r is purely a spelling choice, a way to make a common name look a little distinct on the page.

Carrson appears in United States records only in recent decades and only faintly, given to about fifteen boys at its best year around the late two-thousands while the standard Carson spelling was common. A boy named Carrson then is still a child or teenager today.

Did you know? Carson rose as a first name partly on the fame of frontiersman Kit Carson and, later, television host Johnny Carson; the Carrson spelling is a modern family variation on that same name.
