Jason

The meaning of Jason is ‘healer'. It is a name typically given to boys is and is of Greek origin. It comes from the Greek word ‘iásōn’ which means ‘to heal’ or ‘cure’. According to Greek mythology, Jason was the name of the son of Aeson. He agreed to go on a quest to obtain the golden fleece in order to regain the throne from his uncle, King Pelias. When he found the fleece, he begged his wife, Medea, to extend his father's life at the expense of his own. Seeing this, Pelias' daughters believed the lie that by cutting up their father's body, he might regain his youth. They willingly agreed and killed their father in the process. Pelias' son Acastus ultimately exiled Jason and his wife for killing his father. Years later, Jason died in an accident when a beam from the Argo, the same ship on which he sailed to procure the golden fleece, collapsed on him. A popular figure with this name is Jason Derulo, a multi-award winning American pop singer known for his singles ‘Swalla’ and ‘Savage Love’.
