Daveyon is a modern American masculine name, common in African-American naming traditions. It is a creative variant of Davion/Davian, themselves derived from David (Hebrew Dawid), meaning "beloved." The -e(y)on/-ion ending echoes phonetic and stylistic patterns in names like Savion and Javion, and the inserted -ey- yields a smooth "vay" glide (often pronounced duh-VAY-on). As with many contemporary coinages, the form emphasizes individuality while keeping a familiar root.

The name appears in U.S. records from the late 20th century and remains rare, rising alongside related forms during the 2000s-2010s. Spelling variants include Davion, Daviyon, Daveon, De'Veon, Devion, Davian, Davien, and Davon; diminutives such as Dave, Dae, and Von are also used. While it lacks medieval or classical attestations, Daveyon retains the timeless meaning of David and showcases a modern, rhythmic style.
