Detailed Slovak etymology analysis
Tia sa v anglickom prostredí uvádza ako skrátená podoba ženských mien zakončených na -tia. Bez určenia východiskového mena jej nemožno pripísať jediný pôvodný koreň ani význam. Hebrejský pôvod nie je v použitých zdrojoch doložený. Španielske tía a portugalské tia znamenajú „teta“, ale táto slovná zhoda sama osebe nedokazuje pôvod osobného mena.
