Tanush is the Albanian variant of the Greek given name Athanasius, loaned from Latin.[1] Where the fricative /θ/ becomes the stop /t/, this shows that the name passed through Latin before entering Albanian; the Greek-derived equivalent is the name and onomastic element Thanas.[2] The Albanian definite form is Tanushi. In Latin, it was written Tanusius, while in Italian Tanussio and Tanusso. It may refer to:
- Tanusio Thopia (fl. 1329–38), Angevin Albanian count
- Tanush Thopia (died 1467), nobleman
- Little Tanush (fl. 1423–33), nobleman
- Alkid Tanushi (known as big Alouka) ,2007-today
Tanush is also an onomastic element and appears in the following Albanian language toponyms:
- Tanuše (Albanian: Tanushaj), an Albanian village of the Upper Reka region, Mavrovo and Rostuša Municipality, North Macedonia
- Tanuševci (Albanian: Tanushë), an Albanian village, Čučer-Sandevo Municipality, North Macedonia
