What is the meaning of the name Kislon ?

The baby name Kislon is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced KIS-lon (IPA: /ˈkɪslən/).

Kislon is in Origin.

Kislon is a rare Hebrew masculine name drawn from Biblical Hebrew Kislon (כסלון). It appears in Numbers 34:21 as Chislon, father of Elidad, a Benjaminite leader appointed to apportion the land; the related place-name Kesalon/Chesalon is listed in Joshua 15:10. The root k‑s‑l (kesel) denotes “confidence, trust, security,” and by extension “sturdiness” or “loins,” so the name conveys senses such as “firm confidence,” “secure one,” or “steadfast.”

Outside Scripture, documented use is scant, making Kislon an uncommon choice revived today by families seeking distinctive biblical heritage. Recorded variants and transliterations include Chislon (traditional English Bibles), Kislon, and Keslon; the toponymic forms Kesalon/Chesalon are closely related. The Hebrew month name Kislev shares the same root and semantic field. Pronunciations include KEE-slon or KISS-lon, depending on tradition. Overall, Kislon pairs ancient roots with a brisk, modern sound.
