Demariyon is a distinctive American name of uncertain origin, believed to have been created by parents seeking an original and meaningful name. It is thought to be inspired by the Greek name Demetrios, meaning "follower of Demeter," but its exact meaning is not explicitly stated and varies among interpretations such as "gift from the sea" or "strong as the ocean." Despite being relatively new, with no recorded instances before the 20th century, Demariyon has gained some popularity in the United States since the 1970s.
