Origin: Norse

Meaning: Of Thor; Thunder; Of Tory; To pursue, to hunt

If Thor sounds too big a name for baby, try out its gender-neutral spelling, Torey. It's rooted in Norse mythology and the mighty god of "thunder." Whether or not you're a Marvel fan, baby will channel this son of Odin's heavenly strength! Torey is also a stone's throw from the Irish word tory or toruidhe, meaning "to pursue" or "to hunt.” Over the years, it’s become a political term for a conservative party member, mainly in England, Scotland, and Canada.
