Tristam is a masculine name of medieval origin, a variant of the more common Tristan. It derives from the Celtic name Drustan, which means 'tumult' or 'clamor.' The name gained prominence through the legendary tale of Tristam and Isolde (or Tristan and Iseult), a tragic love story that became one of the most popular romances of medieval Europe. Tristam has never been among the most popular names but maintains a steady appeal for parents seeking a name with literary and historical significance. The name has an aristocratic, somewhat melancholic air that reflects its connection to the romantic tragedy. While less common than Tristan, Tristam offers a distinctive alternative with the same rich cultural heritage.
