The story behind the name

Kannon is a unique boy’s name of Japanese origin. The name is the Japanese form of Kuan-yin, a bodhisattva—or a person who is on the path to enlightenment—of compassion. In the Chinese culture, Kuan-yin is regarded as the protector of both women and children, as well as the patron of sailors. Baby Kannon can take a lot of inspiration from his name’s meaning that can carry him through his entire life.
