Pattun is Scottish, Tamil in Origin.

Pattun is a rare modern respelling of the English–Scottish surname Patton/Patten adopted as a given name. The surname has two chief etymologies: a toponymic path from Old English Peatta + tūn (“enclosure, farm, settlement”), yielding the sense “Peatta’s farm/settlement,” and a patronymic path from pet forms of Patrick (Pat, Paton, Patten), from Latin Patricius, “nobleman.” As a given name in the Anglophone world, the Patton line appears in records from the 19th century and gained broader visibility in the 20th century; Pattun itself emerges as a contemporary distinctive spelling.

Variants and related forms include Patton, Patten, and the Scots Paton; the underlying root is Patrick. Because of its surname style and crisp rhythm (PAT-ən), Pattun skews masculine in modern use but is not intrinsically gendered. Depending on the chosen derivation, its meaning points to either “Peatta’s settlement” or “descended from Patrick/the noble one.”
