Etymology
Jeson is a variant spelling of Jason, derived from the Greek name Ἰάσων (Iásōn), meaning "healer" from the root *ias- (to heal). The name gained prominence through Greek mythology as the leader of the Argonauts who sought the Golden Fleece.
The name is primarily used in English-speaking cultures and Christian contexts, though it has been adopted across various Western societies; Jason (and by extension Jeson) became particularly popular in mid-20th century North America, though the spelling "Jeson" is a modern nonstandard variant of the traditional "Jason."
Jeson currently ranks #13,142 in the United States as a boy's name. It reached its peak popularity around 1996.
