Þangbrandr's origins are uncertain. According to some sources, he was the son of an otherwise unknown Vilbaldus, count of Saxony〔''Brennu-Njáls saga''〕 or of Bremen.〔''Óláfs saga Tryggvasonar en mesta''.〕 But he is also said to be Flemish.〔Theodoricus monachus' ''Historia de Antiquitate Regum Norwagiensium'' (8).〕 He may have been a clerk to the bishop of Bremen.〔''Kristni saga'', ''Óláfs saga Tryggvasonar en mesta''.〕 However that may be, his name seems to be of German origin, and may come from Old High German '' *Dankbrant''.〔McDougall, 1998:66〕
