Can anyone assist with the meaning of the Jewish first name Noson? There was a Rabbi or 2 called Noson and my ancestor was called Noson Davis

"Noson" or "Nason" is a variant form of the Hebrew name "Natan", which means "gift".
The reason why the letter "tav" ("t") in "Natan" is sometimes pronounced with the sound of an "s" is because this is an Ashkenazic pronunciation common among Orthodox Jews.
