Sheridon
Sheridon Origin and Meaning
Sheridon is a masculine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Sheridan, which originated as an Irish surname derived from the Gaelic "Ó Sirideáin" meaning "descendant of Sirideán." This alternative spelling maintains the same pronunciation while offering a slightly different visual presentation. Like many surnames that transitioned to given names, Sheridon carries an aristocratic, distinguished quality. The name gained some recognition through association with playwright Richard Brinsley Sheridan and other notable bearers of the surname. While never achieving widespread popularity as a first name, Sheridon offers a sophisticated option that balances traditional roots with uncommon status. Its three-syllable rhythm and soft ending sounds provide a refined, gentle masculine option.
