History & Origin

Tayquan is a coined name in a well-established American pattern. The Tay- opening is shared with Taylor and Tayshaun; the -quan ending carries its own long run of names. Together they make something confident and rhythmic. There is no traceable etymology, and we do not invent one — the routes are uncertain (said 'TAY-kwahn').

It appears only extremely rarely for boys in the U.S. Rare, coined, and confident.
