Tecuani is a striking and unique male name rooted in the Nahuatl language, spoken by the indigenous peoples of Mexico. The name translates to "jaguar," a powerful and revered animal in many Mesoamerican cultures, symbolizing strength and agility. Pronounced teh-KWAH-nee, Tecuani carries a bold and rhythmic sound that sets it apart. Though not common in the United States, with only five newborns named Tecuani in 2023 ranking it at 12,190th, its distinctive heritage and strong meaning may appeal to parents seeking a name with cultural depth and a fierce spirit. A variation of the name is Tecuhtli, which also draws from rich indigenous roots, offering another option for those captivated by Nahuatl names.
