Meaning & origin
Zaion is a modern American name first recorded in 2004, with no previous historical usage. As an invented name, its meaning is open to interpretation, but it may be related to the name Zion, a biblical place name. The name saw its peak usage in 2021 but has since fallen in popularity; its trajectory shows a steady decline after 2022. Zaion has never ranked in the top 1000 names in the United States, and no top states have been associated with its use.
