History & Origin
Jaysion respells Jason, from Greek Iason, tied to the verb 'to heal.' Jason, borne by the leader of the Argonauts in Greek myth, was a top American boys' name in the late twentieth century, and inventive spellings like this one followed. Jaysion appears in United States birth records only in recent years.
It was never common, given to only a couple dozen boys a year at its high in the mid twenty-tens, so a Jaysion from that peak is a young teen today. It reads as a modern respelling of a classic name.
