Who's Thor's Mother [verified] | 2026 Edition |

In the MCU, Frigga’s kindness and wisdom balance Odin’s harshness, and her love for both Thor and Loki is what makes the family drama so heartbreakingly real.

But here’s a question that stumps a surprising number of people:

The answer is more interesting than you might think—and it changes drastically depending on whether you’re reading a Marvel comic or a Viking saga. In the original Norse sources (the Poetic Edda and Prose Edda ), Thor’s mother is not the glamorous Frigg. Frigg is Odin’s wife and the queen of Asgard, but she is not Thor’s biological mother.
