Tyler
Meaning of Tyler
Tyler is a traditionally male name of English origin. Pronounced as TY-lur (/ˈtaɪlər/), it can also be spelled Tylar. This name rose from occupational roots, originally denoting one who makes or lays tiles, and has since become a popular first name choice for boys across several generations. Throughout the years, Tyler peaked in popularity in the mid-90s, even reaching the top 5 baby boy names in 1994 and 1993. Though it has gently declined since then, it remains a favorite among parents due to its strong consonant beginning and easy pronunciation.
