Origin and meaning

Virtuous descendant (from Hokkien 'tek' [virtue] + 'sun' [grandson/descendant])

Tecson originated among early Hokkien Chinese migrants to the Philippines who hispanicized their multi-character Chinese names into single continuous family names during the Spanish colonial era. It is historically prominent in Central Luzon, particularly in Bulacan.

Tecson is a Chinese-Filipino surname derived from a Hokkien personal or ancestral name, traditionally ending with the suffix '-son' (孫, sūn, meaning 'grandson' or 'descendant', or 生, senn/sheng). The first element 'Tec' typically represents the Hokkien character 德 (tek), meaning 'virtue' or 'moral integrity'.
