Stormin' Norman

Stormin' Norman

Stormin' Norman is a rhyming nickname frequently used for anyone named Norman who is also seen as a dynamic personality, perhaps symbolically living up to the stereotyped pillaging of "Normans" a.k.a. Norsemen or Vikings. The name is usually a media tag. Here are a few examples of public figures with that tag:

*Norm Cash, major league baseball player
*Norman Schwarzkopf, Jr., American military figure
*Norman Siegel, American civil rights attorney
*Norm Sloan, American basketball player and coach
*Norm Van Lier, American basketball player and coach
*Norm Stewart, Hall of Fame Collegiate Basketball Coach (University of Missouri)
*Norman Osborn, Fictional Character in Marvel Comics, aka the original *Green Goblin
