As far as I know...
 As far as I know the origin of many jewish family names
based on the name of a place.
Legally, in the hebrew language, the family name
NAHON possibly comes from an ancient
hebrew lettering of NAON,
 
the name of a village in the province of EVIDO ,
north- west Spain.
Nahon is documented as a family name of a
jewish family that lived
in the 15th century with Yaaqov Nahon
from Avila, Spain.
 
          Famous people that carry the NAHON family name include:
    In the 16th century Benjamin Nahon,
a moroccan rabbi.
          At the 19th century, a moroccan trader,
named Isaac Nahon
              and in the 20th century a israeli-morroccan sociologist,
Yaaqov  Nahon
