Tyran Origin and Meaning

The name Tyran is a boy's name.

Tyran is a masculine name with several possible origins. It may be a variant of Tyrone, which derives from the Irish 'Tír Eoghain' meaning 'land of Eoghan,' referring to an Irish county. Alternatively, it could be a modern invention inspired by the word 'tyrant,' which comes from the Greek 'tyrannos,' originally meaning 'absolute ruler' without necessarily negative connotations. The name gained modest popularity in the United States in the late 20th century as part of the trend toward distinctive-sounding names. Tyran has a strong, commanding sound that appeals to parents seeking a masculine name with presence. While uncommon, it shares phonetic elements with more popular names like Tyrone, Tyrell, and Tyrion.
