Dejon is an African American creation that blends the prefix De- with Jon, similar to Dejuan. Inspired by John from the Hebrew Yehochanan, Dejon means “God is gracious” and “graced by Yahweh” and continues the legacy of a timeless name. Dejon seems to inspire sporting greatness, borne by several famous athletes, including footballers Dejon Allen and Dejon Brissett and basketballer DeJon Jarreau. Also spelled as Dejohn, Dajon, and the more French Dijon, there’s something effortless about Dejon’s vibe that will align with baby’s suave nature.
