Re: Sarah Palin's sons Track and Trig
I answered you on Opinions as well, but here what I said. :-)Trig is a Norse word meaning "true" and "brave victory." The name is in honor of his great uncle, a Bristol Bay fisherman (http://www.celebrity-babies.com/2008/04/alaskan-governo.html)Trygg is also a Scandinavian surname.TRYGG
Scandinavian: from the Old Norse byname Tryggr ‘trustworthy’, ‘faithful’.
English: variant of Trigg.
