Teruyasu is Japanese in Origin.

Teruyasu is a Japanese masculine given name built from the elements teru and yasu. Teru can be written 照, 輝, 昭, or 晴, conveying ideas of shining, radiance, or clear weather; yasu appears as 康, 安, 靖, 泰, or 保, meaning health, peace, tranquility, or stability. Common pairings include 照康 (“shining health”), 輝靖 (“radiant tranquility”), 昭安 (“illuminated peace”), 晴康 (“clear and healthy”), and 照泰 (“bright serenity”). It may also be written purely in kana as てるやす or テルヤス.

The name has a classic tone rooted in Edo–Shōwa naming styles that prized auspicious virtues; it is documented in family registers but is rarer among contemporary births. Nicknames often shorten to Teru or Yasu. Variants and related forms include Yasuteru (reversing the elements) and combinations using the same kanji with different readings. Romanization is typically Teruyasu in Hepburn, with meaning determined entirely by the chosen characters.
