Tuan

Meaning of Tuan

With its roots in Vietnamese culture, Tuan (pronounced twahn) springs from the Sino-Vietnamese tuấn, meaning “handsome” or “talented.” It evokes a blend of gentle strength and bright promise—imagine a thoughtful leader with a warm heart. In the United States, Tuan has maintained a small but steady presence on the baby‐name charts (fewer than ten newborns each year), making it a distinctive pick for families who want something lyrical yet grounded. Like a lantern guiding its bearer through bustling city streets or quiet countryside, Tuan carries heritage and hope in equal measure. And best of all, there’s no awkward nickname lurking around the corner—Tuan stands tall on its own. For parents seeking a name that bridges tradition and modern ambition, Tuan offers a warm invitation to write a unique story.
