What does Jormungandr mean?

Old Norse Jormungandr, the Midgard/World Serpent that encircles the earth. From jormun- 'huge, vast' + gandr, an ambiguous word covering 'serpent/staff/magical being', commonly read 'giant serpent'. Flag: a mythological serpent's NAME, and the second element is genuinely ambiguous (also 'giant staff/binding'), so the 'serpent' reading is the usual but not the only one.

What does Torsten mean?

Torsten joins the god Thor with “stone,” a name of solid strength.
