Names That Mean Thor

An ancient Norse name that is still in regular use in the Orkney Islands in Scotland. A famous historical bearer is Thorfinn Sigurdsson (or Thorfinn the Mighty), an 11th century Earl of Orkney.

Found as a first name primarily in baseball books giving the stats on the late New York Yankee Thurman Munson.

Popular in mid-century Norway, Turid was ultimately derived from the Old Norse name Þórfríðr, from Þórr, "Thor," and fríðr, "beautiful." Turi is a more contemporary spelling, connected to aviator Turi Widerøe.

Pleasant surname connected to humorist James Thurber, with a sound as happy as a baby's gurgle.

This little-known Norwegian gem is a spelling variation of Turid — a popular name in 1940s Norway. With other Scandinavian choices such as Lumi and Juni heating up in the US, Turi could be an unexpected alternative.
