Rock or from the Land of Eoghan
While often associated with modern fantasy literature, the name likely derives from the Irish name Tirion or the county Tyrone, meaning 'land of Eoghan'. It may also share roots with the Latin 'Tyrius', referring to the rock-based city of Tyre. It has gained significant modern recognition through popular culture.
