Dawon is Korean in Origin.
Dawon is a Korean unisex given name, romanized as Dawon or Da-won and written 다원. Built from Sino-Korean elements, Da (often 多 “abundant; many,” also 茶 “tea,” 達 “to achieve”) combines with Won (園 “garden,” 原/源 “origin; source,” 圓 “complete,” 願 “wish,” or 媛 “graceful woman”). Meanings therefore vary, producing senses like “abundant origin,” “many wishes,” “tea garden,” or “complete abundance.”
The name gained currency in South Korea from the late 20th century and is now familiar through K-pop and media; it is fully unisex, though forms using 媛 skew feminine. Variants include Dawon, Da-won, Da Won, and Daywon (used in the diaspora). Note that Daon (다온) is a separate native-Korean name with different etymology.
