Timur Khan is Mongolian in Origin.

Timur Khan combines a Central Eurasian given name with a regal title. Timur derives from Old Turkic tämir/temür, “iron,” also reflected in Mongolian Temür/Tömör; the Persianized form Timūr appears in Islamic chronicles. Khan comes from Turkic–Mongolic qan/han/khaan, “ruler, chief,” later adopted as a hereditary surname in South and Central Asia. Together, the compound evokes “iron ruler” and is used as a double given name or as a first name with a family name Khan.

Best known from the 14th‑century conqueror Timur (Tamerlane, from Persian Timur‑i Lang), whose Turco‑Mongol legacy popularized forms such as Timur, Temür, and Temur across the steppe and into Russia and the Caucasus; in South Asia, Taimur and Taimur Khan are common spellings. Variants and related forms include Timur, Temür, Temur, Taimur, Temir, Timūr; for the second element: Khan/Khān, Khaan (Mongolian), and Azerbaijani Xan.
