Tyrny

Tyrny is a toponym used for several inhabited localities in Russia and other countries of the former Soviet Union. The name appears in regional administrative records and gazetteers, and is typically associated with rural settlements. No single Tyrny dominates in size or prominence; rather, the name is dispersed across multiple regions.

Most Tyrny settlements are small, with populations ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand. They are usually situated in agricultural or forested landscapes and are connected to larger towns by regional roads.

Historically, localities bearing the name Tyrny grew within broader patterns of rural settlement in their regions. Economic activity commonly centers on agriculture, light industry, or resource-based activities depending on geography.

Administratively, Tyrny localities are part of a district (raion) within a federal subject and are governed as rural settlements or village municipalities within the district framework.

Etymology is uncertain; the name may derive from local languages or historical toponymic conventions common to the area.
