Tyrell is a boy's name of Old Norse, Old English, and Old French origin. One theory suggests Tyrell is a derivation of Týr, the name of the god of war in Norse and Germanic mythology. Artwork depicting Týr presents him as a warrior with one hand and a wolf's skin covering his head or draped across his shoulders. Another theory is that Tyrell stems from Tirel, a playful Norman nickname for those with a stubborn personality. Tyrell also has Old French roots, from tirer, meaning "to draw" or "to pull."
