Tavis
Meaning of Tavis
Tavis (pronounced TAY-vis /teɪˈvɪs/) is a spirited boy’s name that feels like a gentle monsoon breeze dancing through a courtyard of marigolds. It springs from the Old French traverser, “to cross,” and carries a playful echo of the Gaelic Tavish, once a clansman’s badge for twins. Picture a boy chasing kites under banyan trees or cracking a cheeky joke mid-match during street cricket—that’s pure Tavis. In the U.S., just six little souls were named Tavis in 2024 (ranked 918), making him a hidden gem. Bold, warm, and ready for adventure, Tavis is that bright spirit who lights up every room.
