Jon is a ♂ male name.
Jon is a variant of the name John and a short form of the name Jonathan, which are both of Hebrew origin.
Jon means “Yahweh is gracious” (from Hebrew “jô/יֹו” = referring to the Hebrew God + “chanan/חָנַן” = to be gracious/to show favor) or “God has given” and “gift of God” from “yeho/יְהוֹ” = referring to the Hebrew God + “natan/נָתַן” = to give).
