Auryon is in Origin.

Auryon is a modern, largely American coinage that draws on the Latin root aur- (from aurum, “gold”) and echoes the sound of Orion/Arion from Greek tradition. As with many contemporary inventions, its meaning is interpretive: parents often read it as “golden” or “of gold,” with a celestial undertone from its similarity to Orion, the mythic hunter and prominent constellation. It is used for all genders, though most common for girls in recent U.S. usage.

Documented only sporadically before the 2000s, Auryon fits the broader trend of Auri- names (Aurelia, Aurora) and -yon/-ion endings favored in modern English naming. Variant spellings include Aurion, Auryan, Auryen, and less commonly Aureon; related sound-alikes are Orion and Arion. Without a fixed Old World pedigree, Auryon’s appeal rests on its luminous imagery: a name suggesting brightness, value, and a touch of starlight.
