Random but ok, I'll bite, lol Thanks, pumeco. It's actually a not uncommon surname here in the US and in parts of Indonesia. Online I've found very few Americans with it as their first name spelled the way I spell it- a wrestler (olympic style, not WWF), a porn star turned criminal and myself. Other spellings, like Tionne Watkins of TLC and Tian (I think that's Chinese for Heaven) and of course the Japanese (and often female name) Teyon, I see more often. There's even a Polish gaming company called, Teyon (though without a doubt they pronounce it Tay-yawn).
The exact origin of the name though, I couldn't tell you. Sadly, that's one I've never been able to sort out.
Interestingly I found some random site that tried to tell me what my name meant through description instead of a clear cut, "this is what it means". A lot of the description fit me well - with the exception of trying to control everything, which I don't (and probably should) do. In fact, here's my attempt now: Let's get back on topic, lol.
