Help with meanings
Can anyone help me with the meanings of these names? Some of them I have an idea of, so I'll post that when I know. All are male (or possibly unisex).
Savion (poss Hebrew name of a plant)
Semaj (other than James backwards I have no clue)
Shamar/Shemar (???)
Soren (scandinavian or dutch of some sort)
Stephon (some form of Stephen I'm sure)
Syed (arabic??)
Tahj/Taj (???)
Tarik/Tyrek/Tyreke/Tyrique (related to Tariq?)
Tavian/Tavion (somewhere I heard Irish "hillside"?)
Tevin (I have it relating to Thomas from somewhere?)
Trae/Tre (just more versions of Trey I presume? English?)
Travon/Trevin/Trevion/Trevon/Treyvon (English? "fair town"? somehow relating to Trevor or Travis??)
Trever (just a form of Trevor?)
Treyton (related to Trey? something about a town?)
Tristian (related to Tristan? a play on Tristan/Christian?)
Troy (I know it's a Greek place name, but beyond that?)
Turner (probably some sort of occupational name, right?)
Tyquan (from somewhere I have this is relating to John)
Tyree (from somewhere I have Gaelic "land")
Tyreese/Tyrese (???)
Tyron (related to Tyrone?)
Tyshawn (contemporary created name from Shawn?)
Also, are these just the same as the English word, or is there mroe to them? Sincere, Stone, Talon
I hope that's not too many for one post! Any help would be appreciated

the t-names
Tahj/Taj: Hindu name meaning 'crown' (the Taj Mahal is a well-known palace)
Tarik/Tyrek/Tyreke/Tyrique: all spelling variations of Tariq
Tavian/Tavion: 3 possibilities:
1) Irish, from the word teeve , meaning 'hillside'
2) Latin, meaning 'eighth'
3) Scottish, meaning 'twin', like Tavio
Tevin: either African boy name or a variation of the Irish Tavion (thus meaning 'hillside'); one site also said it was a form of Kevin, but i don't take that seriously)

Travon/Trevin/Trevion/Trevon/Treyvon: either form of Trevor or abbreviation of Trevelyan, meaning 'fair town'
Trever: when English, it's a form of Trevor; when origin French, it's a variant on the Old French name Travis
Treyton: variants include Trayton, Traton, Tratton and Tritten (as surnames) and the meaning is 'town full of trees' (from a placename indeed)
