kason is English in Origin.

Kason is a modern American given name, most often treated as a respelling of the English surname Cason or as a contemporary K + -son blend with a nod to Jason. Many interpret it as “son of Kay,” with Kay traced either to the medieval English given name Kay (ultimately linked to Welsh Cai) or to the Gaelic Aodh (“fire”) via the surname Kay/McKay. Because Cason itself has mixed surname roots, Kason carries a stylish ambiguity while retaining a crisp, two-syllable sound.

The name rose in the United States in the 2000s amid the boom in -son and K-initial names, charting alongside Mason, Grayson, and Jaxon. Variants and related spellings include Cason, Kayson, Cayson, Kasen, Kaysen, and Kaeson; short forms Kase or Kas appear in everyday use. Predominantly masculine in contemporary records, Kason’s meaning is typically given as “son of Kay,” though many sources simply list it as a modern variant of Cason.
