Where it comes from
From Norwegian Trondheim, from Old Norse Þróndheimr. Doublet of Throndham and Throwendham. Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *trew(H)- (“to nourish, to grow”), thus referring to the unusual warm-summer climate of this inland fjord. Compare Old English þryþ.
proper noun Throndham
- A city and municipality in Trøndelag county (formerly Sør-Trøndelag), Norway. It is the third largest city in Norway after Oslo and Bergen.
