Evon is French, Gaelic in Origin.
Evon is a modern given name with more than one pathway. As a feminine choice, it is an Anglicized variant of Yvonne/Evonne, from French Yvonne, the feminine of Yvon (ultimately from Germanic Ivo), meaning “yew,” the evergreen once prized for bowstaves and a symbol of endurance. This spelling appears in English-speaking countries and in French‑Canadian and Caribbean usage. Related feminine forms include Evonne and Ivonne.
Used for boys as well, Evon also aligns with Evan, the Welsh form of John (Iefan), from Hebrew Yohanan “God is gracious.” The name occurs sporadically in early‑ to mid‑20th‑century records, peaking when Yvonne and Evan were fashionable, and remains rare today. Variants and cognates: Yvonne, Evonne, Ivonne; Yvon, Yves; Evan, Ewan, Ifan. Nicknames include Von/Vonne. Overall meanings: “yew” or “God is gracious,” depending on lineage.
