History & Origin

Zion is an ancient Hebrew place name — 'highest point; fortress' — and a poetic name for Jerusalem, long carried into English through scripture and song. Zionn is a recent stylistic respelling with a doubled n; the meaning is unchanged (said 'ZY-un').

The doubled-n form is very new and appears only rarely for boys in the U.S. Rare, uplifting, and modern.

Did you know? Zion is a Hebrew name for the hill of Jerusalem, later a poetic word for the whole city; Zionn simply doubles the n for a modern look (said 'ZY-un').
