Davaughn is an American name for boys and an alternative to Devaughn and Davon. These monikers are said to come from the phonetic elements da and von, which leave this name's meaning open to interpretation. Davaughn can also stem from Irish and Latin roots when considering Davon as an Anglicization of several Irish last names. One such surname comes from the French Devin and Latin dīvīnē, aptly crowning your child as "divine" and "magnificent." It can also refer to someone who has the gift of prophecy. Stemming from the last name Dubháin, Davaughn adopts the meaning "little dark one," and the last name Ó Damháin lends the endearment "fawn." Whether celebrating baby's beautiful features and innate majesty or looking for something they can truly make their own, Davaughn makes a handsome name choice.
