Combination of the prefix Ty- and the name Juan
Tyjuan is a modern American invention, likely created by blending the popular 'Ty-' prefix with the Spanish name Juan. It follows a 20th-century naming trend within African American communities of creating rhythmic, multi-syllabic names by combining established elements. While it does not have an ancient etymology, it carries the meaning of its root name Juan, which is 'God is gracious'.
