Grayson, a surname-turned-given-name, is composed of the Middle English element greyve, meaning "steward," combined with the word son. Therefore, this patronymic and occupational name translates to "son of the steward." Grayson first appeared in the Social Security Administration's top 1,000 for boy names in 1984 and has now been a top-50 boy's name every year since 2015, though some parents prefer to spell it Greyson. Several celebrities have named their sons Grayson, including country singer Mickey Guyton, "Little Women: LA" star Terra Jolé, former JLS singer Aston Merrygold and "Southern Charm" star Ashley Jacobs.
