What is the meaning of the name Khezron ?

The baby name Khezron is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced English: /ˈkɛz.rən/ (KEZ-ruhn); Hebrew approx.: /χeẓˈron/ (khez-RON).

Khezron is Hebrew in Origin.

Khezron is a modern transliteration of the Hebrew name Hezron (חֶצְרוֹן), derived from the Semitic root ḥ-ṣ-r meaning "enclosure," "courtyard," or "settlement," hence "enclosed" or "one of the court." In the Hebrew Bible, Hezron is a grandson of Judah through Perez and a forebear of King David, which also places him in the ancestral line of Jesus in Christian tradition.

The name appears in biblical genealogies (Genesis 46:12; Numbers 26:21; Ruth 4; 1 Chronicles 2) and survives in the Greek New Testament as Esrom (Esrōm). A related toponym, Kerioth-hezron, occurs in Joshua 15:25. Variant spellings include Hezron, Hetzron, Chezron, Chazron, and Chetsron; Khezron reflects the "kh" used to approximate the Hebrew ḥet. While seldom used today, it appeals to parents seeking rare, historically anchored Hebrew names with a concise, strong sound and rooted meaning.
