Unable to find this name in my ref. materials. "Beth" means "house" in Hebrew. "Win" was O.E. or M.E. for "friend." The "win" element also had other meanings at various times in history, such as war and war-related meanings. Thor is an unusual forename for a woman, is it not? I'll do a little more digging if no one else comes up with anything. Fascinating name, tho'. Gary Radcliffe [email protected]
