Tevyn is a modern American given name, typically masculine, viewed as a creative respelling of Tevin (pronounced TEH-vin). Tevin emerged in the late 20th century United States, likely shaped by the popularity of Kevin and Devin and brought to wider notice by R&B singer Tevin Campbell in the early 1990s. Because Kevin derives from the Irish Caoimhin (built on elements meaning "gentle, fair, beloved"), some parents read a similar sense into Tevyn, though this link is associative rather than etymological.

The -yn ending places it among current respellings that feel fresh yet familiar.
