History & Origin

Hudsyn feminizes Hudson — the English patronymic 'son of Hudde', a medieval pet form of Hugh (Germanic hug, 'heart, mind, spirit'). Hudson boomed for boys in the 2000s; the -syn respelling (as in Madisyn) marks it for girls.

It registers thinly for girls in recent records. Rare, sporty, and river-named.

Did you know? Henry Hudson sailed the river (and bay) that bear his name searching for a passage to Asia — never found it, but stamped the surname onto New York's map and now onto birth certificates.
