Abstract
The male name Þórarinn is traditionally Þórarni in the dative. In addition to the usual
dative form, four innovative forms have been used, Þórarin, Þórarini, Þórarinum and
Þórarininum. Here, att empts are made to explain how these forms emerged. Þórarin
and Þórarini have their counterparts in the infl ection of personal names, e.g. Benedikt
(dat.) and Auðuni (dat.), and are apparently due to proportional analogy. Þórarinum
is a surprising form and may be due to proportional analogy and non-proportional
analogy (rhyming formation), the two types even working in harmony. Þórarininum
is also unexpected and may be due to other non-proportional types of analogy
(blending/contamination or folk etymology).
