The literal meaning is "gift of Yahweh"; the customary English translation is "gift of God." The spelling Tyse corresponds to the Dutch Tijs or Thijs.
Tyse Name History & Origins
Tyse belongs to the Dutch tradition of shortening Matthijs. In the Netherlands, Tijs and Thijs developed as familiar forms of Matthijs, the Dutch equivalent of Matthew, and are also used as independent given names. Matthew entered European naming through the Latin Matthaeus and Greek Maththaios, from the Hebrew Mattityahu. The apostle Matthew and the Gospel of Matthew gave the name wide currency in Christian Europe. Tyse is a spelling of the Dutch short form rather than a separate Dutch name with its own root.
