Dickson

Though baby’s arrival will signal a new beginning, there are still plenty of ways to honor those who came before them. Naming them Dickson is one of those ways, especially if you have a family member or friend called Richard or Dick. Dickson is a masculine name of English and Scottish origins, meaning “son of Dick.” While more typically used as a last name, Dickson can also double as a first name. Richard and Dick are two titles that are intricately connected, as Dick is a shortened form of Richard. Whether baby is one of many people to carry this name in their family or they feel inspired by Richard’s meaning of “powerful ruler,” they’ll know that to be named Dickson is to be part of a legacy much bigger than them.
