Hi,
It is spelt Ryan here. It has a Gaelic and English Origin and means Little King.
The name Ryan is derived from an Irish Surname.
Another form of the name is Rian, pronounced RIE an.
So either of these ways is fine, Ryon is not a recognised way of spelling Ryan.

Ryan is actually a surname in Ireland. I have never even heard of the name Ryon. The Gaelic for the surname Ryan is O'Maoilriain, and this means king. I think Ryan is a brilliant name especially when you see the meaning. The only thing about the name Ryon is that it has no meaning.Why don't you look up some irish websites and they will give you irish names and the legends behind them.

I prefer Ryan .
Ryon is a respelling or mispelling of Ryan, Ryan is the accepted anglicisation of the Irish Gaelic name Rian.

I have never seen it spelled as Ryon. Best keeping it as Ryan I think.

RYAN
Gender: Masculine & Feminine
Usage: Irish, English
Pronounced: RIE-an [key]
From an Irish surname which was derived from Ó Riain meaning "descendent of Rian". The given name Rian probably means "little king" (from Irish rí "king" combined with a diminutive suffix).
Names related to this name are
Rian
Ryana
Ryanne
Which are all english names.
Congrats and Good Luck!

The Irish spelling of that name is Ryan. It is a family name here, but I realise that in the US family names are often used as first names as well.
