Its use peaked in 2003 and has remained stable at very low levels since then, never reaching the top 1,000 names. The name is almost exclusively given to boys, and its exact meaning is unknown. It is most likely a creative variant of Tyler, formed by adding the -ek suffix, a pattern seen in other contemporary names.
