Also Torin, which I think is a Welsh version.

Did someone say the other day that this word is connected to the dark web?

Like it, Tor is a cool shortening.

Would nickname be Tory like the Political party 😬

Hopefully Torbs would work well as a nickname

I definitely remember reading something about the dark web on here recently .... but maybe I’m getting confused
