♥ DonateMeaning & History
From the Greek name Ἰάσων (Iason) meaning "healer", derived from Greek ἰάομαι (iaomai) meaning "to heal". In Greek mythology, Jason was the leader of the Argonauts. After his uncle Pelias overthrew his father Aeson as king of Iolcus, Jason set out to find the Golden Fleece to reclaim the throne. Along the way he married the sorceress Medea, who helped him obtain the fleece and slay his uncle, but later turned against him when he fell in love with another woman.The name also appears in the New Testament, belonging to a man who sheltered Paul and Silas. In his case, it may be a Hellenized form of a Hebrew name. It was not used in England until after the Protestant Reformation.
