Tynon Origin and Meaning

The name Tynon is a boy's name.

Tynon is a modern masculine name with potential Celtic or invented origins. It may be a variation of Tynan, which derives from the Irish surname Ó Teannáin, meaning "descendant of Teannán" (a personal name related to "firm" or "strong"). Tynon could also be a modified spelling of Tiernán, an Irish name meaning "little lord." The distinctive spelling with the letter 'y' gives it a contemporary feel while maintaining connections to traditional names. Tynon remains quite rare, appealing to parents seeking an uncommon name with a strong, masculine sound. The name has a crisp, dignified quality that combines modern style with potential traditional roots, though it lacks extensive historical usage records.
