Modern creation, possibly a variation of Dion or Tay- prefix
Tayon is a modern American name likely formed by combining the popular 'Tay' prefix with the 'on' suffix, or as a phonetic variation of the Greek name Dion. It emerged in the late 20th century and does not have a singular traditional etymology. Its usage is often found within African American communities as a unique rhythmic choice.
