The name emerged in popularity primarily in the late 20th century in North America and Australia. Teegan carries a modern, energetic quality with its crisp sounds and rhythmic flow. For girls, it represents a balance between strength and approachability, appealing to parents seeking a name that's distinctive without being difficult to pronounce or spell.
