Modern invented name, possibly a blend of De- and Tron
Detron is a modern American name likely created by combining the popular prefix 'De-' with the suffix '-tron', which gained cultural visibility through technology and science fiction. It does not have a traditional etymological root but follows 20th-century naming patterns in African American communities. It is often chosen for its rhythmic, strong sound.
