====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Espeon's name is derived from ''ESP'', or {{wp|extra-sensory perception}}, a branch of psychic abilities. The ''-eon'' suffix, common to all {{p|Eevee}} [[evolution]]s, comes from Eevee's prototype English name and possibly refers to the ending suffix of ''evolution'' itself. Espeon's Japanese name is derived from a combination of エスパー ''esupaa'', literally ESPer or a person with psychic powers, and フィール ''fiiru'', the word "feel" in English, because of its extraordinary sensory abilities.
