All about the name THARYN

Meaning, origin, history.

Tharyn is a unique and distinctive given name of recent origin, believed to have been coined by author J.R.R. Tolkien for his fictional character Tharinn in "The Lord of the Rings" series. The name is often considered to be of Elvish origin, reflecting Tolkien's intricate language creation for his Middle-earth legendarium. It is composed of elements from his constructed languages, with 'Th' and 'arn' potentially derived from Sindarin, one of Tolkien's Elvish languages. As a result, Tharyn carries an air of fantasy and otherworldliness, appealing to those drawn to Tolkien's mythology or seeking a name that stands out from traditional options. Despite its literary roots, Tharyn has not gained widespread usage as a given name, making it quite uncommon. This rarity contributes to its allure for parents looking for a distinctive name for their child.
