Jaxon, a more modern way of spelling Jackson, comes from an English surname-turned-given-name meaning "son of Jack." It first appeared in the Social Security Administration's top 1,000 for boy names in 1997 and has now been a top-100 boy's name every year since 2010. In fact, it's more common than Jason, Jax, Jaxson, Jaxton and Jaxxon. It's also the name "Laguna Beach" star Kristin Cavallari and retired NFL quarterback Jay Cutler gave their son Jaxon Wyatt, born in 2014. "Imposters" star Parker Young switched it up when he named his daughter Jaxon Orion, born in 2018.
