Kommentar von Ozzyfive

Aggneta (spelled Agneta in Swedish) is a common Swedish girl's name. And her last name, Tyrsdottar, means Tyr's Daughter. A long time ago in Sweden, people used to be called their father's name and then Dottar (for girls) and Son (for boys). For example Svensdottar or Svensson. Hope this information is helpful! Ciao ;)

This is still the case in Iceland as well.

Tyr is a norwegian word for "bull".

Her name made me wonder; if translated to norwegian, her last name is Tyr's Daughter. Tyr is Thorim's dead wife. Is this perhaps the daughter of Thorim, or just a random name from Blizzard?

Edit: Oh, right, Sif. I fail at names :<

Her last name Tyrsdottar is based on old Norse, a man/womens aftername was always the fathers name and the suffix, dottar for the girls, or son for boys, son means naturally son(though spelled diffrently) and dottar means daughter. So her name as mentoned means Daughter of Tyr or if it was a boy it would be Tyrsson or Tyrson, sry not quite sure if they

This kind of namegiving was mainly used by the vikings, but some countries like Norway, where i am from, and perhaps even sweden and denmark kept this tradition for some time and some afternames today can be traced back to the old vikings, in Iceland this is still used.
