Soap; or a variation of Xavier
Savon is primarily recognized as the French word for soap, though in an American naming context, it often emerges as a creative modern invention or a phonetic variation of the Basque name Xavier, meaning 'new house'. It gained some visibility in the 1990s but remains a rare choice.
About 26 boys were named Savon in 2025.
