Meaning & origin
Nixxon is a modern American given name that follows the fashionable pattern of transforming surnames into first names. First recorded in 2009, it reached its highest popularity in 2017, when it ranked 9,714. Since then, its usage has been declining, reflecting a trajectory common for names that ride a short-lived trend. The variant spelling with a double 'x' gives it a distinctive edge over the more traditional Nixon. Despite its recent emergence, Nixxon has not yet been recorded as a top name in any specific state. Its meaning is transparent: son of Nick, linking it to the well-established name Nicholas.
Nixxon is a modern American coinage formed by adding the common patronymic suffix -son to the given name Nick. The name Nick ultimately derives from the Greek name Nikolaos, composed of nike (victory) and laos (people). As a surname-style given name, it follows a trend popular in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. The variant spelling with a double 'x' distinguishes it from the more common Nixon.
