What is the meaning of the name Megon ?

Megon is French, Welsh in Origin.

Megon is a modern, rare spelling variant of Megan, most often pronounced MEG-ən. Megan is the Welsh diminutive of Margaret, formed from the pet-name Meg plus the Welsh -an ending. Margaret ultimately derives from Greek Margarites, “pearl,” via Latin and Old French, so Megon inherits the luminous meaning “pearl.”

While Megan appears in Welsh records from the 16th century and surged across the English-speaking world in the late 20th century, Megon surfaces sporadically in recent U.S. and Canadian usage as a creative update, sometimes chosen to distinguish from the more common forms. Related spellings and cognates include Megan, Meghan, Meagan, Meaghan, and Meggan; nicknames Meg and Meggie remain standard. Broader relatives across languages are Margaret, Marguerite, Marjorie, Margarita, Margo/Margot, Greta, Gretchen, Maisie, and even Daisy (by folk association with Marguerite).
