Keagon is Irish in Origin.

Keagon is a modern English given name shaped by Irish roots. It is most plausibly a creative respelling of Keegan/Keagan, themselves Anglicized from the Gaelic surname Ó Aodhagáin or Mac Aodhagáin, derived from Aodh ("fire") with the diminutive -agán. The underlying sense is "little fire" or "descendant of Aodhagán." As with many Irish surnames turned forenames, usage as a first name rose in the English-speaking world during the late 20th century, especially in North America; the specific spelling Keagon remains rare.

Variants and related forms include Keegan, Keagan, Kegan, Keegen, Keagen, and Keaghan; Egan is a shorter cognate from the same root. The -on ending in Keagon follows contemporary naming patterns without changing pronunciation for most speakers. The name is typically masculine but used unisex by some families. Overall, Keagon carries a brisk, modern look while preserving the fiery Gaelic heritage of its parent forms.
