Enderson is a patronymic-style name found as both surname and modern given name. The -son ending follows English and Scots naming patterns, and the form often arises as a regional or clerical variant of Anderson or Henderson. In those lines it means “son of Andrew” (Greek Andreas, ‘manly, courageous’) or “son of Henry” (from Germanic Heimric, ‘home-ruler’). A more contemporary reading treats it as “son of Ender,” with Ender used independently in several languages; in Turkish, Ender means ‘rare, exceptional’.

As a family name it appears sporadically in Britain and North America from the 18th–19th centuries. As a given name it is most visible in Brazil from the late 20th century, part of the local vogue for anglicized -son forms; Brazilian football manager Enderson Moreira is a noted bearer. Variant forms and cognates include Anderson, Henderson, Endersen (Scandinavian -sen), Ederson, and Enders; short forms include Ender and Endy.
