Tarrus is English in Origin.

Tarrus is a modern given name in English, most often viewed as a creative variant of Taurus, from Latin taurus meaning "bull" and associated with the zodiac sign. In this sense it evokes strength, steadiness, and earthy resilience. The double‑r spelling appears particularly in Caribbean and African-diaspora communities; Jamaican reggae singer Tarrus Riley helped bring the name to wider notice in the 2000s, though it remains rare in official statistics.

Variants and related forms include Taurus (classical spelling), Tarus (simplified), Tarris and Terris (surname-influenced spellings), and the stylistic coinage Tarius, which overlaps in sound with Darius and Marius. Because of that overlap, some interpret Tarrus as a blend or riff on Darius or Terrence, but etymologically its clearest root is Latin taurus, "bull." Used primarily for boys, Tarrus fits contemporary preferences for strong, two-syllable names with classical undertones and distinctive spelling.
