Royson Origin and Meaning
The name Royson is a girl's name meaning "son of Roy; son of Royce".
Royal and Rory are both in the US Top 1000 for girls where they join a number of surname-inspired names ending in -son, from long-time favorite Madison to the newer Emerson. The yet to rank Royson could be a new consideration with its rosy feel, but tougher edge.
The meaning of Royson depends on which root you follow, but possibilities include: "son of Roy", Roy being an anglicized form of both he Scottish name Ruadh meaning "red" and the French Roi meaning "king"; "son of Royce", where Royce is a medieval form of Rose; and "from Royston" a British place name, meaning "town of Rose".
Whether Royson takes off as a unisex name, or whether it leans more feminine or masculine is yet to be seen, but it does have potential.
