Torkili Origin and Meaning

The name Torkili is a boy's name.

Torkili is a rare masculine name likely derived from Norse or Scandinavian origins. It may be a variation of the name Torkil or Torkjell, which combines the elements 'Thor' (the Norse god of thunder) and 'ketill' (meaning 'cauldron' or 'helmet'). This distinctive name carries the strength and power associated with Norse mythology, particularly connecting to Thor, one of the most revered gods in the Norse pantheon. The additional 'i' ending gives it a unique quality while maintaining its Scandinavian roots. Extremely uncommon in most countries, Torkili would be a distinctive choice for parents seeking a name with ancient Nordic connections and a powerful meaning that stands out in virtually any community.
