Titus is a Greek believer and Paul’s partner. Paul did not compel him to be circumcised (Galatians 2:3), so that the truth of the good news for the nations would stand. Timothy was circumcised for the sake of the Jews who knew his mixed parentage; Titus was not, lest circumcision be imposed on Gentiles as necessity.

STRONGS NT 5103: ΤίτοςΤίτος (Rec.st in the subscription, Τίτος; cf. Lipsius, Gram. Unters., p. 42f; Tdf. Proleg., p. 103; Pape, Eigennamen, under the word; Winer's Grammar, § 6, 1 m.), Τίτου, ὁ, Titus, a Gentile Christian, Paul's companion in some of his journeys and assistant in Christian work: 2Co 2:13; 2Co 7:6; 2Co 7:13; 2Co 8:6; 2Co 8:16; 2Co 8:23; 2Co 12:18; Gal 2:1; Gal 2:3; 2Ti 4:10; Tit 1:4. He is not mentioned in the Book of Acts. But since Titus is the praenomen, perhaps he appears in the Acts under his second, or, if he was a Roman, under his third name; cf. Rückert on 2 Cor., p. 410. He is by no means, however, to be identified (after Wieseler, Com. ü. d. Brief a. d. Galater, p. 573f (also his Chron. d. apost. Zeit., p. 204)) with the Titus of Act 18:7, even if the reading (of some authorities (see Tdf.'s note ad loc.)) Τίτου (see Τίτιος above) Ἰούστου be the true one.
