Tue is Danish in Origin.
Tue is a Scandinavian given name, chiefly Danish and typically masculine. It descends from Old Norse Tófi (with the related feminine Tófa, source of modern Tove). The etymology is debated: many link it to Old Norse túfa “tussock, small mound,” yielding the sense “tuft/knoll,” while others treat it as a short form of compound names beginning with Þór- (Thor-). The name appears in medieval Danish records and in Anglo-Scandinavian contexts (compare the medieval form Tovi), remained in quiet use through parish registers, and saw modest revival in 20th‑century Denmark.
Variants and relatives include Tuve (Swedish, masc.), Tovi/Tófi (medieval, masc.), Tove (now mainly feminine in Scandinavia), and Tuva (fem.). In a separate linguistic stream, Tue can represent Vietnamese Tuệ (Sino‑Vietnamese 慧), meaning “wisdom” or “sagacity,” an independent origin that coincides in spelling in Romanized form.
