Meaning of Teagan

Teagan, pronounced TEE-guhn, flutters from the lips like a lark at dawn and carries an emerald passport stamped “Éire,” for it stems from the Gaelic Tadhgán, meaning “little poet” or “philosopher.” Over time this lyrical traveler has samba-ed up the U.S. charts—leaping from the misty 700s in the early 1990s to a radiant peak inside the top 200 around 2016, before gracefully settling near 300 in recent years—showing she is more steady heartbeat than fleeting firework. Folk tales paint the original Tadhgán as a silver-tongued bard, and modern parents hear in Teagan that same blend of quick wit and fearless corazón, equal parts scholarly parchment and fiesta confetti. Like a troubadour weaving verses beneath a Spanish moon, the name wraps Celtic mist in Latin warmth, whispering “carpe diem” to any child destined to turn the ordinary into poetry.
