The original surname derives from the Gaelic 'Ó Tighearnaigh' meaning 'descendant of Tighearnach', with 'tighearna' translating to 'lord' or 'master'. This alternate spelling with a 'y' ending gives the name a contemporary feel while maintaining its Irish roots. As a first name, Tierny remains uncommon, giving it a distinctive quality. The name carries connotations of leadership and nobility from its lordly meaning.
