I love the name it’s unique! Reply Robin Aug 16 at 10:25 am We chose Waylon after Waylon Jennings he and my husbands father were good friends so the name was inevitable for us really. We love it he is almost 5 months old and is totally a Waylon Reply Brandy Jun 16 at 10:11 am Just loved the name Reply Conni Jun 8 at 12:24 pm In the womb, I felt my baby’s spirit to be generous and peaceful. There were many times in pregnancy when I felt held by my baby’s spirit as if baby was carrying me through our journey. I liked the name Waylon, and when I looked up the meaning (land beside the road) it made me think of my husband and I’s many road trips when I felt “held” by the road (or the vast land beside it). It felt generous and peaceful to me. I don’t really care for Waylon Jenning’s music, so I don’t like that they share the same name. We are from TX, and I like that the name has TX history. But I don’t like it when people assume we named our son after Waylon Jennings or that I am a Waylon Jennings fan. Reply Hannah Apr 13 at 2:00 pm We though that Waylon was a really cool name and after meeting our little guy we decided it was a perfect fit for him. I like that it is easy to spell and isn’t a very common used name. Reply Hannah Apr 11 at 9:40 pm My husband always liked Waylon. I wasn’t sure about it until one day he said it, using it in context about our potential son and I fell in love with it. I love the old feeling to it and it’s not a common name but not weird. No we did not name him after Waylon Jennings, though we do enjoy some of his songs. The definition is a bit off “land beside the road” so I go off of lon meaning fierce and way meaning path. Waylon: fierce path. I do believe my son will make a fierce path in life and for the Lord. Reply Amber Apr 11 at 1:35 pm Named after Waylon Jennings. It’s a unique name and I love the country feel. We use Way & Waylo for nicknames. We paired the name with a family name for his middle & it is perfect for our feisty boy.
