Tavaris Origin and Meaning

The name Tavaris is a boy's name.

Tavaris is a masculine name that appears to be a modern variation of names like Travis or possibly Tavares. The name emerged in usage in the United States primarily in the 1970s-1990s. Its etymology is not definitively established, but it may relate to the surname Tavares, which has Portuguese origins. Alternatively, it could be connected to Travis (from a French surname meaning 'to cross'). The addition of the 'is' ending creates a distinctive sound pattern while maintaining recognizable elements.
