Eymon is Turkish in Origin.

Eymon is a modern respelling of the Irish given name Éamon (pronounced AY-mon), the Gaelic form of Edmund. Its roots lie in Old English ēad “wealth, prosperity” and mund “protection,” yielding the meaning “prosperous protector” or “wealthy guardian.” The name entered Ireland via Norman influence and settled into regular use through the late medieval period, with renewed prominence in the 19th–20th centuries; the statesman Éamon de Valera is a notable bearer of the traditional form.

Variants and cognates include Éamon, Eamon, Eamonn, Edmund, Edmond, and the Italian Edmondo. The spelling Eymon is rare and stylistic, sometimes perceived as bridging Irish Éamon and the medieval French Aymon (from Germanic Haimo “home”), and occasionally mistaken for Arabic Ayman. Despite the orthographic variety, the prevailing Irish-Edmund lineage keeps the core sense of steadfast, protective prosperity.
