Some characteristic forenames: Spanish Carlos, Jose, Raul.
Spanish (Truán): nickname from truhán ‘knave, joker’.
Cornish: perhaps a habitational name from Trewoon (Saint Mewan, Cornwall), which is pronounced in the appropriate way; or possibly from any of the places called Troon (in Breage, Camborne, and Phillack). The placenames are derived from Middle Cornish tre + goen (‘farm on the downs’).
