Thunder Origin and Meaning

The name Thunder is a boy's name meaning "a loud rumbling or crashing noise heard after a lightning flash".

This booming word name has been used every year since 1988, yet at most was given to 30 baby boys in a single year. But with names like Thunder, all it takes is one celebrity to bring it to the mainstream, and Usain Bolt could be the guy. He welcomed a son named Thunder (yes, Thunder Bolt) in 2021, twin to Saint Leo and brother to Olympia Lightning.

Thunder may seem like an odd choice for popularization, but related celebrity baby names such as Stormi, Zephyr, and Sunny are on the rise, so Thunder isn't that far of a stretch.
