Thurgood

Thurgood is a masculine name of English origin that’s been historically used as a surname. It comes from the Middle English Thurgod and, by extension, the Old Norse Thorgautr. The first element, Thor, has a divine ring to it, translating to “thunder” and connecting baby to the Norse god of thunder. The second element, Gautr, can translate to “Goth” or “Geat,” which historically referred to two different Germanic tribes. When blended together, Thurgood can mean “Thor’s Goth,” “Thor’s Geat,” and “thunder Geat,” among other translations. For an extra touch, Thurgood may also remind you of history-making Supreme Court justice Thurgood Marshall. If you want to manifest a similar prosperous future in your bundle of joy, Thurgood makes for a booming start.
