The given name Tre is a modern English form tied to trey, the card and dice term for three, which entered Middle English via Old French (treis/trei) from Latin tres.

The name is predominantly masculine but sometimes used unisex. Core meaning centers on three and, by extension, the third or third in line, carrying connotations of lineage, continuity, and an easygoing, contemporary vibe.
