Chasen is English in Origin.
Chasen is a modern elaboration of the English name Chase, ultimately from Old French chacier "to hunt; pursue," which entered Middle English as chase. As a given name, Chasen keeps the energetic sense of "hunter," "pursuer," with pronunciation CHAY-sen. The spelling also coincides with a Japanese word chasen for a bamboo tea whisk, though this homonym is unrelated in origin.
In the United States, Chasen emerged as a first name in the late 20th century alongside the boom in surname-style choices and inventive -en endings. It has seen modest use compared to the widely popular Chase, peaking in the 1990s-2000s and remaining uncommon today. Variants and related forms include Chase, Chace, Chaysen, Chayson, Chason, and Chayse. While primarily masculine, it appears occasionally as unisex. As a surname, Chasen occurs in English-language records, further reinforcing its contemporary, stylish feel.
