Etymology & Historical Origin of the Baby Name Emersyn

Emersyn is a variant spelling of Emerson. Emerson is the transferred use of an English surname meaning, quite literally, “son of Emery”. The name Emery came to England by way of the Norman French and has roots in the Germanic language – from the ancient Germanic personal name “Amalric”. Amalric is comprised of the Germanic elements “amal” (meaning “bravery”) and “rīc” (meaning “powerful”). Therefore Emerson essentially means “son of the brave and powerful one”. The French brought the name to England after the 11th century Norman Invasion where it was anglicized to Emmeric and eventually to Emery by the 13th century. Emerson developed from Emery as a patronymic surname (i.e., passed from the father’s name). It has historically been used as a male personal name since the 19th century but today, in the 21st century, Emerson is now considered unisex. The respelling of Emersyn is intended to feminize the name making it more distinctly “girl”.

Popularity

OF THE GIRL NAME EMERSYN

As mentioned above, Emerson has a long history as a boy’s name, but more recently (and particularly in the United States), the name has gone unisex. Parents only started using Emerson for their baby daughters very recently, yet already, in no time flat, the name for girls has outpaced its male counterpart in terms of popularity. So it’s no surprise that Emersyn showed up as an alternate spelling in 2010. The “-syn” suffix is a lot more female thus eliminating the unisex confusion. The pet forms of Em, Emmy, Emery or Emma all work nicely for this name, as well.
