Innocent; short form of Katherine or variant of Terran
Teryn is a modern American coinage, most often used as a creative variant of the Irish name Tierney or as a diminutive of Katherine. It is also frequently associated with the Latin-derived Terran, meaning 'of the earth'. Its usage is rare, appealing to parents seeking a unique, gender-neutral sound for a girl.
