Thor

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thor Odinson was a prince of the planet Asgard, son of Odin and Frigga. He was banished to Earth by his father, Odin, for an unauthorized attack on the Jotunheim. While on Earth, he met and fell in love with Jane Foster. He regained his power after he attempted to sacrifice himself to protect Jane and her friends from a destroyer sent by his adopted brother, Loki. He later joined the Avengers to stop Loki from conquering Earth, and again to fight the A.I. Ultron. After defeating Malekith, Odin (actually Loki in disguise) offered Thor the throne of Asgard, which he declined.

In the Disney Channel animated series, Phineas and Ferb, Thor was the nephew of Phineas & Ferb's neighbor. Thor and his siblings, Thaddeus and Mandy would occasionally visit their aunt on the weekend. Thor bore a resemblance to Ferb.

In Hannah Montana, Thor was a friend of Miley's brother Jackson.

Thor is a recurring character in the Disney Channel series, Girl Meets World.

Thor is of Norse origin, and means "Thunder". Thor made the top 1000 names in the U.S. in 1961 (#964), 1965 (#964), 1966 (#894), 1968 (#881), 1969 (#957), and in 1971 (#912). In 2014, 114 boys were given the name Thor.
