What is the meaning of the name Jasson ?

The baby name Jasson is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced JAS-ən (/ˈdʒæsən/) — often pronounced JAY-sən (/ˈdʒeɪsən/).

Jasson is Greek in Origin.

Jasson is a modern respelling of Jason, ultimately from Greek Iason (Iásōn), derived from iaomai “to heal,” giving the meaning “healer.” The name entered wider use through the legend of Jason and the Argonauts in classical literature and inscriptions of the Hellenistic era. It saw intermittent medieval use, was recognized in the Renaissance revival of classical names, and surged in English-speaking countries in the 1960s–80s; Jasson arises within this period as a distinctive double‑s spelling.

Variants include Jason, Jayson, Jasen, Jaysen, and Jaison; Greek Iason, Spanish Jasón, Italian Giasone, Portuguese Jasão, Polish Jazon, and the transliteration Yason. Nicknames and short forms include Jay and Jase. Jasson remains comparatively rare, found in the United States and parts of Latin America, where creative orthographies are common. The doubled consonant visually differentiates it while preserving the familiar sound and classical meaning.
