Delson is English in Origin.
Delson is a modern surname-style given name formed from Del + the patronymic -son. In English, -son means “son of,” while Del is a medieval short form found in several names: from Germanic Adel- (“noble”) roots, from Derek (ultimately Theodoric, “people-ruler”), and from Delbert or Delano. The composite therefore signifies “son of Del” and, by association, can echo “descendant of the noble one.”
Used sporadically in English-speaking countries since the late 19th century as a transferred surname, Delson remains uncommon but recognizable. It also appears in Lusophone naming - especially Brazil - reflecting the local fashion for -son endings; a Portuguese spelling Délson is encountered. Variants include Dellson and Delsson; related forms and near-neighbors are Delton, Delon, Delano, Nelson, and Edson. Informal diminutives are Del or Dels. As a place-name, Delson in Québec occasionally reinforces awareness of the name.
