Dawson

There’s no doubt TV has made a major impact on baby names. One example includes the English boy’s name Dawson, meaning “son of David,” which was popularized by the late-90s classic Dawson’s Creek. Though the show no longer airs, the name is still a trendy selection, both for fans of the series and parents who like last names as first names. It’s mainly derived from the name D’Oson, whose earliest usage dates back to the Norman Conquest.
