What is the meaning of the name Apisorn ?

The baby name Apisorn is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced ah-pee-sorn.

Apisorn is Thai in Origin.

Apisorn is a Thai given name (Thai: อภิสรณ์) rooted in Pali and Sanskrit. It combines abhi- (superior, eminent) with saraṇa, “refuge” or “protection,” which in Thai yields the element sorn/son (สรณ์). The composite sense is “exalted refuge,” “noble protection,” or “supreme support,” an auspicious idea resonant with Buddhist notions of taking refuge in the Triple Gem.

The name gained currency in Thailand in the 20th century, as modern Thai personal names increasingly drew on Pali–Sanskrit vocabulary to express virtuous qualities and good fortune. Apisorn is used chiefly for boys, though Thai given names can be unisex in practice. Common romanization variants include Aphisorn (reflecting the Thai aspirated p), Abhisorn (a more Sanskritized rendering), and the familiar short form Sorn; less common spellings may drop the final -n. Usage remains most prevalent within Thailand and among Thai diasporic communities.
