Origin
Meaning and history of Dejavion
The name Dejavion does not appear to have a clear historical origin or etymology. It seems to be a modern invented name, possibly a combination of the French word "déjà" meaning "already" and the English suffix "-vion" which has no specific meaning. As a relatively new and unique name, there are no records of it being used throughout history.
However, some possible historical influences or inspirations for this name could be speculated upon. The French word "déjà" is related to the English word "deja" which refers to the psychological phenomenon of déjà vu – the feeling of having already experienced a present situation. This concept has been explored in various philosophical and literary works throughout history.
The suffix "-vion" could potentially be inspired by names of Greek or Roman origin, such as Flavion or Priscavion, although these are rare and obscure names with limited historical information available. It's possible that the creators of the name Dejavion were aiming for a unique and modern-sounding name with a subtle nod to French and classical influences.
As a newly created name, there are no famous historical figures who bore this name. The earliest recorded instances of the name Dejavion are likely from the late 20th or early 21st century, as it gained popularity as a unique and invented name choice for newborns.
Without a clear historical lineage or recorded usage prior to modern times, the name Dejavion remains a relatively blank slate in terms of its origins and cultural significance. Its meaning and impact will be shaped by the individuals who bear this name in the present and future.

FAQ
Dejavion: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Dejavion?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 5 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Dejavion going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 68,550,868 US residents.
Is Dejavion a common name?
We classify Dejavion as "Very Rare". It ranks above 18.2% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 5 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Dejavion most popular?
The single biggest year for Dejavion was 2010, when 5 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Dejavion is about 16 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Dejavion in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Dejavion a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Dejavion in the SSA data are male. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Dejavion still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Dejavion in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Dejavion can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only covers names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files do not have a published Census demographic snapshot. In those cases, the page still shows the SSA trend, gender history, and state data.
