Name Meaning

English (Norfolk): from the Old Norse personal name Guthormr, from Old Norse guth ‘battle’ + ormr ‘snake’. There may also been some confusion with the Old Norse female name Guthrún, the ancient Germanic male name Godram, and the Old English female name Gōdrūn. But in all cases except Guthormr, the evidence for these as surnames is slight.
