It is from Roman Mythology!!
in reply to a message by Magia
When ever I found meaning of the name Tirso it would say -Greek origin, means "crowned with vine leaves-
But then after doing a bit of research I found the Latin word thyrsus -i m. [the stalk of a plant; a wand , as carried by Bacchus and his attendants].So, I guess the name Tirso comes from the Latin word thyrsus, which indeed means "crowned with vine leaves".Pls, correct me if I'm wrong :o)
