Re: Taryn
in reply to a message by Norah
Norah is probably correct. In this context, Taryn is considered a variation upon Tyrone. But there's a very old Celtic name Taran, from the god Taranis, Celtic equivalent of Thor or Vulcan.Taran in this context means "thunder", and I think I'd claim that connection before I owned up to "Tyrone" (which means "Eoghan's land" in Irish).We create our own mythologies...
