Tore is a Scandinavian masculine name. It is derived from the Old Norse name Þórir, itself from an older reconstructed form Þórvér, which is composed of Þórr meaning thunder, and vér meaning priest or warrior.[1] So Thor's Priest, Thunder Priest, Thor's Warrior, or Thunder Warrior. The most famous person by this name is probably Tore Hund, who killed Olaf II of Norway at the Battle of Stiklestad. Approximately 18,000 people in Norway are named Tore.[2]
