Rayman is English in Origin.
Rayman is a modern given name, usually treated as a variant or respelling of Raymond. Raymond descends from Old Germanic Raginmund/Raimund (via Old French), from ragin “counsel, advice” + mund “protection,” giving the sense “wise protector.” The name was prominent in medieval France and Iberia (notably among the Counts of Toulouse) and entered English after the Norman Conquest. Rayman as a distinct spelling appears mainly in English-language records from the 20th century onward. Its root elements ragin and mund were common in early Germanic dithematic names.
Variants and cognates include Raymond, Raymon, Ramond, Ramon (Spanish/Catalan), Raimon (Occitan), and Raimund (German); feminine forms include Ramona and Raymonde. Diminutive: Ray. Though rare, Rayman fits contemporary surname-style and phonetic-spelling trends, with pop culture (the Ubisoft video game character) keeping the spelling visible. Parents sometimes choose Rayman to honor a Raymond while giving it a contemporary twist.
