Origin and meaning

second grandson (from Hokkien di/ji [second] + sun [grandson])

Dizon belongs to a distinct group of Hispanicized Chinese-Filipino surnames ending in '-son' that indicate birth order and generation (such as Tuazon, Sison, and Samson). It originated from Hokkien Chinese settlers during the Spanish colonial era who integrated into Philippine society, particularly in Central Luzon. Over centuries of use, it has become one of the most established and widespread surnames in the country.

Derived from Southern Min (Hokkien) Chinese patronymic naming systems, specifically combining the ordinal numeral 'di' (二, second) with 'sun' (孫, grandson). It was Hispanized and adopted as a hereditary surname in the Philippines.
