Tre’von is in Origin.

Tre'von is a modern American given name, especially popular in African American naming traditions. It blends the element Tre- (related to Trey, a nickname often given to a "third" in a family line) with the -von ending familiar from Devon, Javon, and Lavon. Because of this formation, Tre'von is commonly interpreted as "the third," though it functions chiefly as a contemporary, rhythmic coinage rather than a word with a single historical meaning. The apostrophe is stylistic and does not change the usual pronunciation, TRAY-von or TREH-von.

The name entered wider use in the late 20th century and saw increased visibility in the 1990s and 2000s in the United States. Variant spellings include Trevon, Tre'Von, Trevion, Tre'vion, Travon, and Trayvon; hyphenated or spaced forms (Tre-Von, Tre Von) also appear. It is unrelated to the German nobiliary preposition "von."
