Jaxen

Jaxen is a modern English invented name, a spelling variant of Jaxon, itself an altered form of Jackson, which originated as an English surname meaning son of Jack. Jack is a medieval pet form of John, derived from the Hebrew Yohanan, meaning God is gracious. The name gained popularity in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries as part of a broader trend toward surname-derived given names with phonetic spellings.
