What is the meaning of the name Jazon ?

The baby name Jazon is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈdʒeɪzən/ (JAY-zən).

Jazon is Greek in Origin.

Jazon is a Slavic-adapted form of Greek Iásōn (Ἰάσων), carried into Latin as Jason. The name stems from the verb iaomai, “to heal,” giving the meaning “healer” or “one who cures.” In Polish, Slovene, Croatian, and Serbian, Jazon is the literary rendering of the mythic hero’s name and an occasional given name; in English and Spanish it can appear as a modern respelling.

Use traces back to classical antiquity via Jason, leader of the Argonauts, and to early Christianity through Saint Jason of Thessalonica mentioned in the New Testament. The Renaissance revival of classical names sustained its presence in European literature, while contemporary usage remains uncommon but recognizable. Close variants include Jason (English and international), Iason (transliteration), Jasón (Spanish), Giasone (Italian), and Jasonas (Lithuanian); Jazon/Јазон appears across South Slavic languages. The core meaning across these forms remains “healer.”
