Thorin

Meaning: (Thunder, Chief, Variant of Torin. Variant of Thor. Thor was the Norse God of Thunder and Power, One of the Sons of Odin.)

Origin: (Old Norse, Norse Mythology, Irish Gaelic, English)

Pronunciation: (toh-rehn, Tor-in, Thor-en)

Gender: Male

So a few months back I saw the Hobbit movies again and the main Dwarf is named Thorin Oakenshield. I really like the name a lot and the strong meanings are great too. It is a nice more unique name that still has a connection to the name Thor. Thorin is a name that could be a male alternative to Thor and Thora *see on list of posts* the female alternative.
