The name.
The neighbourhood is named after the farm Storo. This farm was the big ("store") part of the old farm O. The farm O is first mentioned in 1279 ("Oo"), and the name is identical with the Norse word "ó", a sideform of "á" f 'river' (here Akerselva river).
The farm was divided into two parts around 1550 AD: Storo ("Store O") and Lillo ("Lille O" - "lille" means 'little').
