[8] þróndr (m.) ‘thriving one’: A hap. leg. possibly connected with the weak verb þróast ‘thrive, grow’ (see ÍO: þrónd(u)r and Note to þrór in l. 7 above). The ms. reading (normalised þrôndr in Skj B and Skald) is difficult to account for, unless it is a proper name (cf. the m. pers. n. Þrándr; see SnE 1998, II, 525).
