Teagun is Irish in Origin.

Teagun is a modern English respelling of Teagan/Tegan, drawing on two Celtic streams. In Irish, it traces to Tadhgán, a diminutive of Tadhg - an old given name borne by medieval chieftains and poets - yielding the sense “little poet” or “little philosopher.” In Welsh, the cognate Tegan relates to teg “fair, lovely,” and also appears as a noun meaning “toy,” giving the name a softer “darling, pretty one” nuance.

Used as a unisex choice, Teagun is rare but fits the late-20th-century rise of Teagan/Tegan in the United States, Canada, and Australia. The spelling with u preserves the same pronunciation while offering a distinctive look. Common variants include Teagan, Tegan, Teegan, Teaghan, and Teighan; related forms include Teague (from Tadhg). Overall meanings cluster around “little poet” (Irish) and “fair, lovely” (Welsh), making Teagun both lyrical and bright.
