Torbjörn, Thorbjörn, Torbjørn or Thorbjørn (given name) are modern Swedish, Norwegian and Danish forms of the Old Norse name ''Þòrbjörn'', meaning thunder (from the name Thor) and bear. Other variants of the name include the Danish/German form Torben and the predominantly German form Thorben. English variants include Thurburn, Thorburn, Thorbern, Thorebern, Thorber, and Thurber, which are, however, normally used as surnames. The English variant also includes Tubby, which is common in the Norfolk area of England and the early whaling communities of North America. ==Notable people named Torbjörn== * Thorbjørn Jagland, Norwegian politician from Norwegian Labour Party * Torbjörn Arvidsson, soccer player *Thor-Björn Bergman, Swedish documentary filmmaker * Thorbjørn Egner, Norwegian children's author * Torbjörn "Ebbot" Lundberg * Torbjörn Blomdahl, billiards player * Torbjørn Brundtland, band member of the Norwegian electronic music duo, Röyksopp * Torbjörn Ek, bandy- and soccer player * Thorbjörn Fälldin, Swedish politician * Torbjörn Jonsson, soccer player * Torbjörn Nilsson, soccer player * Thorbjørn Olesen, golfer * Torbjörn "Pugh" Rogefelt * Torbjörn Tännsjö, philosopher 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Torbjörn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
