An uncommon English pick — distinctive and rare.
A male given name originating as a coinage, of latter 20th-century African-American usage.
Tyrese is a boy's and girl's baby name of American origin, a modern invention that emerged in African-American naming culture in the late 20th century. The name became widely recognizable through actor and singer Tyrese Gibson, star of the Fast & Furious franchise, giving it strong associations with charisma and talent.
Tyrese was #593 twenty years ago and has since drifted to #2331, but its charm endures.
