Proper noun[edit]
Jorma
- a male given name
- 1897, Juhani Aho, Panu, WSOY, published 1947, pages 126–127:
- Jorma hoiti näitä toimiaan niinkuin taisi, mutta kun hän oli enemmän soittaja ja laulaja kuin tietäjä, joutui Panulan tietäjän vanha maine yhä heikompaan huutoon sitä mukaa kuin Reidan maine kasvoi.
- Jorma did has errands as he knew how to, but as he was more of a musician and a singer than a wise man, Panula's wise man's old reputation got weaker and weaker as Reita's improved.
