Thor (Old Norse: Þórr) is referred to by many names in Old Norse poetry. In the Nafnaþulur collection there is a strophe which contains a list of Thor's names.
- Þórr heitir Atli
- ok Ásabragr,
- sá es Ennilangr
- ok Eindriði,
- Björn, Hlórriði
- ok Harðvéorr,
- Vingþórr, Sönnungr,
- Véoðr ok Rymr. - [1]
Some of those names are well attested in Eddaic poetry and skaldic poetry. For example Þrymskviða contains both Vingþórr and Hlórriði. Others do not appear to occur outside of Nafnaþulur.
