What is the meaning of the name Awon ?

The baby name Awon is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced ah-WON (approx.; Korean IPA: /a.wɔn/).

Awon is in Origin.

Awon is a cross-cultural given name with several plausible roots. In Korean it appears as A-won (아원), where the meaning depends on the chosen hanja; popular combinations convey ideas such as “elegant lady” (雅媛), “graceful garden” (雅園), or “origin/source” (源). The name entered wider use in South Korea in the late 20th century and trends slightly feminine today, with spellings A-won and Ah-won both seen in Romanization.

In Arabic-influenced naming, Awon often reflects Awn (عون), meaning “help, support,” a word and personal name known from early Islamic times and preserved in modern forms like Aoun. It also overlaps with Awan, a South Asian surname and given name of Arabic derivation. Variants and related spellings include A-won, Ah-won, Awn, Aoun, Aon, and Awan. Depending on origin, Awon can thus carry senses of refined grace, a tranquil garden, foundational “origin,” or steadfast “help.”
