Meaning: Bear

Bjorne is a masculine Scandinavian name with roots in Old Norse, from the word bjǫrn. With the short and sweet meaning “bear,” Bjorne is equal parts sturdy and endearing for your little cub. Sometimes spelled as Bjorn, Bjorne-with-an-e gives the name a dash of texture and individuality. Bjorne is yet another surname-turned-first name that parents are falling in love with, perhaps for its stately Scandinavian air coupled with the strength of a burly bear. Also a form of Bernard, Bjorne is a distinct alternative sporting a classic appeal.
