Thurmon Origin and Meaning

The name Thurmon is a boy's name.

Thurmon is a masculine name with Germanic origins, likely deriving from the Old Norse god Thor, associated with thunder and strength. It appears to be a variant of Thurman, which combines 'Thor' with 'man,' creating a meaning along the lines of 'Thor's man' or 'devoted to Thor.' This name carries a strong, traditional quality with a touch of ancient nobility. Thurmon has never been widely popular but saw modest usage in the United States during the early to mid-20th century, particularly in southern regions. Its usage has declined in recent decades, making it quite rare for contemporary children. This name might appeal to parents seeking a distinctive name with historical roots and a powerful meaning.
