Noisy or tumultuous
Derived from the Greek name Thorubios, which translates to 'noisy' or 'tumultuous'. It became established in the Spanish-speaking world due to several saints, most notably Saint Toribio de Mogrovejo, a 16th-century missionary to Peru. It is now considered a rare, traditional choice with deep religious roots.
