Meaning & origin

Addisen first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1993, riding the wave of surname names that became popular for girls in the early 2000s. The name saw its peak usage in 2007, attracting parents who favored the -en ending over the more standard Addison. Since 2008, its trajectory has been steadily falling, and it did not rank among the top 1000 in 2025. This modern coinage remains a distinctive choice, reflecting the broader fashion for names like Madison and Addison that blend surname tradition with a feminine touch.

Addisen is a variant of the surname Addison, meaning 'son of Adam.' As a given name, it emerged in the late 20th century as part of the trend of using surnames as first names, often given a feminine spelling with the -en suffix to distinguish it from the more common Addison. The name peaked in popularity in 2007 and has since declined.
