It's probably a "creative" variant of Tyrik. Click on the hyperlink for more info.
Also, Tyriek, please don't usurp another person's thread in the future. It's considered rather rude.

When you read Genesis 38, you can imagine why the name never got very popular. It is generally derived from the Hebrew stem ON (Aleph-Yod-Nun), meaning "strength, vitality, wealth". Another possible (but not very likely) meaning is "deceive".
Besides ONAN you will find ON and ONAM, probably with the same meaning.
