History & Origin

Teagon is a modern spelling of Teagan, a Celtic name pulled between the Irish Tadhg, 'poet,' and the Welsh teg, 'fair.' Teagan climbed for both boys and girls in the early two-thousands, and the -on ending of Teagon nudged it toward the boys' side while keeping the familiar sound.

The name in this spelling was always rare, given to only about fourteen boys a year at its peak in the early two-thousand-teens and to barely more than a hundred in total. A boy named Teagon then is a young teen now, at the edge of the broad Teagan trend.
