Raigon is Irish in Origin.
Raigon is a modern given name in English, likely a creative elaboration of Reagan/Regan and related Gaelic surname forms. Through that link it carries the commonly cited meaning “little king” - from the Irish Ó Riagáin, “descendant of Riagán,” with Riagán variously analyzed as rí “king” plus the diminutive -án or from riag “impulsive, fervent.” As a contemporary coinage, Raigon also echoes Ray, lending a bright, modern feel rather than a single fixed etymology.
Use of Raigon is rare and recent, emerging in the late 20th and early 21st centuries across English-speaking countries. It functions as a unisex choice, though usage data are sparse and it has not appeared in major top-1000 charts. Variant spellings include Raegon, Raygon, Raigen, and Rhaigon; cognate or related names include Reagan, Regan, and Ragan. Parents may favor Raigon for its regal Gaelic association combined with a distinctive, contemporary sound.
