History & Origin

Kerrion is a modern American coinage pairing a Ker- opening, perhaps echoing the Irish Kerry, with the -ion ending of Darion and Marion. It belongs to the invented -ion names that circulated in the later twentieth century, and its precise build and meaning are uncertain, which we note.

It was never common, given to only about fifteen boys a year even at its peak around 1998, with records continuing recently. A boy named Kerrion then is a young adult today.

Did you know? The -ion ending in Kerrion links it to a set of modern boys' names - Darion, Marion, Tarion - that parents favored for their strong, rolling three-beat sound.
