What is the meaning of the name Eddison ?

Eddison is English in Origin.

Eddison is an English patronymic surname-turned-given name, the double‑d variant of Edison. Built from Old English ead ‘wealth, prosperity’ plus the suffix -son ‘son of,’ it denotes ‘son of Eda/Eddy,’ loosely ‘son of the prosperous one.’ The root ead also underlies classic names such as Edward, Edmund, Edwin, and Edith. Variants and related forms include Edison (standard), Edson, and the rare Eddyson; nicknames Ed, Eddie/Eddy, and, for occasional female use, Edie.

Found in medieval records as a family name, it entered given-name use mainly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries under the influence of the inventor Thomas Edison. Eddison itself remains uncommon, surfacing more in Britain and other Anglophone countries as a stylish twist on the better-known spelling. The name aligns with the modern surname-as-first-name trend and is used predominantly for boys, though it does appear sporadically across the English-speaking world and, less often, in Latin America.
