Raydun Origin and Meaning

The name Raydun is a boy's name.

Raydun is an uncommon masculine name with uncertain origins, possibly a modern creation combining the popular element 'Ray' (from Raymond, meaning 'wise protector' or literally 'counsel' and 'protection') with a suffix like '-don' or '-dun' that appears in names of Anglo-Saxon or Norse influence. The element 'dun' could relate to 'hill' or 'fort' in Old English. Raydun remains extremely rare, not appearing in most name popularity charts or historical records. The name has a strong, contemporary sound while evoking imagery of light (through the 'ray' element) and strength. Parents might choose this name seeking something with modern appeal yet substantial-sounding, distinctive without being difficult to pronounce.
