Meaning & History

Means "possessor of ink" or "he who has black ink" in Nahuatl, from tlilli "black (colour); black ink, paint, soot" and the possessive suffix -hua. This was also the name of one of the Centzontotochtin, gods of the pulque (an alcoholic beverage made from maguey sap) and sons of Patecatl and Mayahuel.
