Tizoc is a name of Aztec origin, meaning "smoking mirror." It was held by several notable figures in ancient Mesoamerica, including the seventh ruler of the Aztec empire, who reigned from 1427 to 1486. The name Tizoc is also associated with Tezcatlipoca, a significant deity in Aztec mythology often depicted wearing a necklace of polished obsidian mirrors.
"Tizoc saw its peak popularity during the early 80s, with a total of 21 babies named Tizoc born between 1976 and 1980. After a gap of nearly two decades, there was another spike in usage from 1998 to 2003, with 24 births recorded during this period. The name then fluctuated around an average of five births per year until 2020, bringing the total number of babies named Tizoc over the past 45 years to 56."
