Modern invented name, possibly meaning the king
Dequon is a modern American name likely created by combining the popular 'De-' prefix with the name Quon. While Quon can have roots in Chinese surnames, in this context it is often used for its rhythmic sound or as a variation of the name Quan, which is sometimes associated with the Spanish 'Don' or the title of a ruler.
