Thursie, derived from the Old Norse 'Þórshöfn', is an uncommon yet intriguing female given name of Scandinavian origin. It is believed to have been a pet form of names beginning with 'Þór' such as Þórhildr and Þóra, all of which are associated with the god Thor in Norse mythology. In Old Norse, 'höfn' translates to 'haven', suggesting that Thursie could be interpreted as a haven or peaceful retreat. The name was likely more common during the Middle Ages but has since become quite rare.
"I've found that there were only six babies named Thursie born each year between 1928 and today."
