Borne by the first African American Supreme Court Justice, Thurgood Marshall, this name probably originated from the Puritan "Thoroughgood." While Thurgood is still quite clunky, it is certainly less of a mouthful than the original form. In fact, it has a surname-style quality to it that makes it more wearable. Thurgood has only ever appeared in the US stats once and that was in 1993 when 5 boys were given the name, following the death of Thurgood Marshall in the January of that year.
