Meaning & Story
Derived from the Old Norse 'Tyrr,' meaning 'god of battle' — or possibly a modern variation of Tyra, a Scandinavian feminine name with powerful warrior roots.
Tyra is a name that carries the energy of a champion — confident, bold, and completely in command of whatever room she walks into. It conjures the fierceness of the Norse war deity as much as the iconic supermodel and television host, and dogs named Tyra tend to embody all of that self-possessed power. She knows she looks good, she knows she is capable, and she carries herself accordingly at all times.
