  4. Tyron

    • Description:

      Tyron is a masculine given name that appears to be a variant spelling of Tyrone, which originated as a place name in County Tyrone, Ireland, deriving from the Irish 'Tír Eoghain,' meaning 'land of Eoghan.'

The name saw modest popularity in the 1970s through 1990s. The simplified spelling may have emerged through natural phonetic adaptation, as the final 'e' in Tyrone is silent.

Cleevon has remained relatively uncommon as a given name throughout its documented usage. The name has a strong, masculine sound with its clear consonants and two-syllable structure.
