Jolyon

Inspired by the Latin Julius, Jolyon is a boy’s name and a Medieval English variation of Julian that flows with a distinct roll from its rich o spelling. While the precise meaning is not confidently known today, it’s widely regarded that Jolyon holds the endearments “youthful” and “downy-bearded” from separate roots. Julius' use during the Roman era denoted someone “sacred to Jupiter,” ideal for mythology lovers wishing to honor their favorite sky god. Jolyon also appears in The Forsyte Saga, a trilogy of novels written by John Galsworthy set near the turn of the 20th century in London, England.
