A simple, pretty journal made for one person: Taryn. Her name is set in script above pink watercolor apple blossom on the cover.
Behind the Name says Taryn is probably a feminine form of Tyrone, and that actors Tyrone Power and Linda Christian created it for their daughter Taryn Power, born in 1953. Wikipedia calls it an English feminine given name of various meanings, mostly popular in the United States, Canada and Australia and to a lesser extent in South Africa.
Behind the Name has no related-name list for Taryn, and Wikipedia’s only cross-reference is Tarryn, a unisex given name. That makes Taryn and Tarryn the two spellings to know. Short and snappy, it rarely needs a nickname.
Taryn Manning, born in 1978, is an American actress, singer-songwriter and fashion designer, says Wikipedia. Its list also includes Taryn Brumfitt, an Australian body positivity advocate, writer and filmmaker, and Taryn Power (1953 to 2020), the American actress for whom the name was created. It also names Taryn Onofaro, born in 1979, an Australian television presenter.
Taryn never appeared in a Social Security top-200 decade table, from the 1880s to the 2010s. Behind the Name’s US chart has it in the top 1,000 for 44 years between 1955 and 2014, best at 227th in 1985. Its last England and Wales rank was 835th in 2006.
Wikipedia’s list of Taryns includes Taryn Simon, born in 1975, an American artist who has worked in photography, text, sculpture and performance. It also names Taryn Fiebig (1972 to 2021), an Australian opera and musical theatre soprano and cellist. The list also has Taryn Hemmings, born in 1986, an American soccer defender, and Taryn Suttie, born in 1990, a Canadian track and field athlete.
Whether Taryn is eight or eighty, a 6" x 9" notebook is a comfortable size: big enough to write in properly, slim enough to carry. The 160 lined pages don’t come with a set layout, so she decides what it’s for. Journal, planner, class notes, recipes, travel log or doodle book all work. And with her name on the cover, nobody will mistake it for theirs.
Personalized gifts show you thought about the person, not just the occasion. A notebook with Taryn on the cover is affordable, useful every day and still feels special. It’s also a safe choice when you’re not sure of someone’s style, because everyone needs somewhere to write things down.
How big is Taryn’s Notebook? It’s 6" x 9" (about 15.2 x 22.9 cm), with 160 lined pages in a paperback cover.
