ArchivesI think it's derived from Tierney (m)
in reply to a message by Perrine
A "tiarna" (Irish), or "tighearna" (Scottish), both from the Old Irish "tigerna", is a lord in the Gaelic world and languages.
Tierney is a modern version of the surname of "Tiarna", even though spelt differently the meaning remains the same.

“Dear optimist, pessimist, and realist – while you guys were busy arguing about the glass of wine, I drank it! Sincerely, the opportunist!”
