Absalón Origin and Meaning

The name Absalón is a boy's name of Spanish origin.

Absalón is a masculine name of Hebrew origin, derived from the biblical Absalom (אַבְשָׁלוֹם), meaning 'father of peace' or 'my father is peace.' In the Bible, Absalom was the third son of King David, known for his remarkable beauty and tragic rebellion against his father. The Spanish form Absalón maintains the biblical roots while adapting to Hispanic phonology. Despite its rich historical significance, the name remains relatively uncommon in modern usage. Those named Absalón might be perceived as carrying a name with gravitas and historical depth. In some Latin American countries, particularly among traditional families, the name occasionally appears as a distinctive choice that reflects religious heritage.
