Tyrai Origin and Meaning

The name Tyrai is a boy's name.

Tyrai is a modern masculine name with uncertain etymology. It may be a variant spelling of Tyree or Tyrae, which some sources suggest could derive from the Irish surname Tyrie, meaning 'from the land of towers.' Alternatively, it might be a creative variation of names starting with 'Ty-' (such as Tyler or Tyrone) combined with a distinctive ending. The name began appearing in U.S. naming records in the late 20th century but remains relatively uncommon. Tyrai has a contemporary sound that aligns with the trend toward unique spellings and distinctive-sounding names. The name has been documented primarily in the United States, though usage statistics show it remains rare compared to more common masculine names.
