Timur, which means iron. He's often known as Timur Lane because when he was young, he was injured in both the hand and leg by arrows, which impaired his movement, and which is why the Europeans called him Timur the Lame, which became Timur Lane. But despite his physical impairments, he's able to conquer much of the Shagatai Khanate eventually and the Il Khanate and establish a dynasty of his own. The empire gets established in 1370 when he gets effective power over much of the western Shagatai Khanate. He comes from a Turko-Mongol tradition. Now you'll hear these terms Turko-Mongol a lot because even though the Mongols conquered this large swath of territory, they did so with the significant help of people speaking Turkic languages from Central Asia, Turkish being the most well-known of the Turkic languages. And so many of the conquerors, especially the Muslim conquerors of Central Asia and Persia of this period are of a Turko-Mongol ethnicity.
