Jazon
Fewer than a dozen men in Poland carry Jazon, and no boys have been given it this century: most Poles will never meet one. It's the Polish form of the Greek Iason, from a verb meaning "to heal," so the name reads as healer.

Jazon is pronounced YAH-zon (/ˈjazɔn/).
What Jazon means
Where Jazon comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Jazon is the Polish form of Jason. The name reaches back to Greek, to the ancient Iason, built on the verb "iasthai," to heal. The short meaning follows straight from the root: a healer, in Polish uzdrowiciel. That sense was present in the Greek from the start.
Greek myth gave the name its best-known bearer. Jason led the Argonauts after the Golden Fleece. The healing strand ties the name to Iaso, a lesser Greek goddess of recovery and a daughter of the physician Asclepius.
In a Polish class register, Jazon still reads as rare. It has no diminutive of its own and no settled variant. A child called Jazon answers to the full form, from the school roll-call to the urząd form he signs as an adult. Nobody trims it to a softer ending. Jazon means healer.

Jazon appears 2 times in the Polish name day calendar, never as a main name. The first of these dates is 12 May.
