Benedictson is a patronymic given name and surname meaning "son of Benedict," Benedict deriving from Latin Benedictus, "blessed." Built with the Germanic -son ending, it developed in English and Nordic naming systems; Scandinavian spellings include Benedictsson and Benediktsson (Icelandic), while Danish and Norwegian often use -sen (Benedictsen, Benediktsen). Cognate routes also produce Swedish Bengtsson via Bengt, the local form of Benedict, and the clipped English Benson overlaps in sense.

Recorded chiefly as a surname from the late medieval period onward, it appears in Scandinavian parish books and Anglophone rolls; Swedish novelist Victoria Benedictsson and Icelandic statesmen surnamed Benediktsson mark the lineage. As a modern first name, Benedictson fits the surname-as-given-name trend, offering a dignified, subtly ecclesiastical tone. Related forms include Benedict, Benedikt, Benoît, Benedetto, and Bengt; plausible nicknames are Ben and Benny. Meaning: "son of the blessed one."
