What is the meaning of the name Segon ?

The baby name Segon is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /səˈɡon/ (seh-GON).

Segon is Catalan in Origin.

Segon is a rare Catalan and Occitan given name and surname, derived from the Latin Secundus meaning "second" and by extension "favorable" or "auspicious." In Catalan, segon is the masculine ordinal for "second," so as a personal name it could mark a second-born child or express a wish for good fortune. The expected feminine in Catalan is Segona.

Secundus was borne by several early Christian martyrs and officials, and its Romance descendants entered medieval naming across Iberia and southern France. While Spanish and Portuguese favor Segundo/Segunda and Italian favors Secondo/Seconda, the shorter Segon appears sporadically in Catalan-speaking regions and in Occitan areas, more often as a family name. Recognized variants and cognates include Secundus, Segundo, Segunda, Secondo, Seconda, Segona, and the French/Occitan Segond. Not to be confused with Yoruba Segun, which is unrelated and means "to conquer."

Segon is exceptionally rare. There are only 3 recorded uses on record, spread over 2 countries.
