Roedon is in Origin.

Roedon is a rare modern English given name, most plausibly modeled on old habitational surnames ending in -don, from Old English dūn “hill.” The initial Roe- may echo the English word and surname Roe “roe deer,” but it can also reflect the Row-/Raw- of Rowdon/Rawdon, derived from Old English rūh “rough,” yielding the sense “rough hill.” A parallel influence may come from Raydon (interpreted as “rye hill”). Because the spelling blends several streams, contemporary readings range from “rough hill” to the folk-etymological “roe-deer hill.”

As a given name, Roedon sees very light usage in Anglophone countries from the late 20th century onward, fitting the broader rise of -don/-den names. Documented historical use is sparse and generally tied to creative respellings rather than a single traditional source. Related forms and variants include Roden, Rowdon, Rawdon, Rowden, Raydon, Roedan/Roeden, and the short form Roe.
