US Popularity:3047
Origin:American
Other Origin(s):Hebrew
Meaning:Son of Jack; God is gracious
The American boy’s name Jaxen means “son of Jack” and is a version of Jackson. Jack was generally used as a pet form for the name John, signifying “God is gracious” from Hebrew. This means you mightn’t know that many of your favorite celebrities don’t actually go by their real name, including Jack Nicholson, and even 35th President John F. Kennedy was referred to as Jack. So, if you always liked the sound of the name Jackson or Jack but wanted a creative twist, the modern variation Jaxen is a lovely choice for baby.
