Tonis

Tonis is a masculine name with multiple possible origins. It could be a variant of Tõnis, an Estonian form of Anthony, which means "priceless" or "invaluable" from ancient Greek roots. Alternatively, it might be related to the Latvian name Tonis or the Greek name Adonis. The name has some usage in Baltic and Northern European countries but remains relatively uncommon in English-speaking regions. Its brevity and strong consonant sounds give it a modern feel despite its traditional roots. Tonis offers an interesting international alternative to more common Anthony derivatives like Tony or Anton, appealing to parents seeking a name with cross-cultural appeal and a distinctive sound.

Pronounced TOH-nis.
