Terez
Terez Origin and Meaning
Terez is a feminine name with Eastern European origins, primarily functioning as a Hungarian and Czech variant of Theresa. The name ultimately derives from the Greek "theros" meaning "summer" or "harvest," though some sources connect it to "therizo" meaning "to reap" or "to gather." In Hungarian culture, Terez (often written with an accent as Teréz) has been fairly common historically. The name carries a sophisticated European flair while being relatively straightforward to pronounce in English (teh-REZ). Though not widely used in English-speaking countries, Terez appeals to parents seeking a name with international heritage that remains accessible. Its concise, strong sound pairs a soft beginning with a distinctive ending consonant, giving it both elegance and strength.
