Tienen er en by og kommune i den belgiske provins Vlaams-Brabant, i den nordlige del af Haspengouws Plateau. Byen har 35.000 indbyggere og ligger i en højde af 40 meter. Med et areal på 72,77 km² er Tienen den største kommune i provinsen Vlaams-Brabant. Robert Rock mener, at Tienen er en germanisering af det keltiske 'duno', som betyder "bakke, befæstning på en bakke, forsvar". Navnet kan etymologisk også spores tilbage til det galliske 'tigerno, tigunno', som ligeledes betyder: højpunkt, hoved, ophøjelse. Forfatteren påpeger ligheden med Tienes topografi, med Sint-Germanusbakken, omkring hvilken byen opstod.
