I'm from Denmark, and I grew up with the tales of Tyr, and your history about Tyr is correct, but it does not means wolf, in fact Tyr is the scandinavien word for Bull.

No, it's the Danish (and Norwegian?) word for "bull". The Swedish word for bull is "tjur". The word Tyr is probably unrelated to the name Tyr. And where does it say that Tyr means wolf? All I can see is that Tyr was injured by a wolf called Fenrir.
