Thorrin

Meaning of Thorrin

Thorrin is a distinctive male name that evokes the strength and mystique of Norse mythology, though it is not directly derived from the pantheon of Norse gods. It appears to be a modern invention, possibly inspired by similar-sounding names like Thorin, which itself has roots in literature and mythology. Thorin Oakenshield, a character from J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit," is likely a source of inspiration given his leadership qualities and heroic stature. Pronounced THOR-rin, this name carries with it a sense of ruggedness and adventure. Despite its powerful connotations, Thorrin remains quite rare in the United States, with only 5 newborns being given this name in 2023, ranking it at 12190 on the popularity charts for that year.
