Subject: Tyke/Tyge/Tycho?

Is Tyke a cognate of Tycho? I have an 11th great-grandfather from Norway named Tyke. Tycho is a Greek word but popularized by the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe. Additionally, how do you pronounce Tyke? I've heard Tycho is pronounced TOO-koo. And is Tyge related to these names?
