Clamor or noise; bold
Trestan is a modern variation of the name Tristan, which has roots in Celtic legend. While the Celtic 'Drest' likely means 'riot' or 'tumult', the name was later influenced by the Latin word 'tristis', meaning 'sad', due to the tragic nature of the Tristan and Isolde myth. This specific spelling is a contemporary American adaptation.
