Are you pronouncing them differently?

(That’s a better question.)

[name]Torsten[/name] looks very strange to me, but I’m also not very familiar with the name period.

4

Pronouncing as spelled.

5

This doesn’t help. [name]Thomas[/name] isn’t pronounced with the ‘th’ sound so technically [name]Thorsten[/name] and [name]Torsten[/name] could sound identical despite spelling.

6

This. I don’t know this name, but [name]Torsten[/name] just looks bizarre, regardless of how it’s pronounced.

7

I really really like [name]Thurston[/name], but don’t think [name]Torsten[/name] or [name]Thorsten[/name] work as well outside Norway.

8

Germans and Austrians would disagree.

9

The look of [name]Torsten[/name] is growing on me, but I still prefer [name]Thorsten[/name]. I like it

10

I like the spelling [name]Thorsten[/name] but would tend to pronounce them the same. I think most Americans would pronounce the TH though. Not sure about Europeans though.
