Tris is a masculine name that typically serves as a diminutive of names like Tristan, Tristram, or Tristin. With Celtic and Welsh roots, Tris conveys strength and melancholy, derived from the Celtic word 'drest' or 'drust' meaning 'riot' or 'tumult,' or potentially from the Latin 'tristis' meaning 'sad.' This concise, modern-sounding name has gained some popularity as parents seek short, distinctive names with historical connections. While not among the most common boys' names, Tris offers a streamlined alternative to longer traditional forms, appealing to those who appreciate its brevity and subtle literary connections, including its use in popular fiction.
