[Surname] Found more evidence of 'strom' meaning "stream"
Found in one name book that 'strom' was German for stream as well as from my Norwegian wife ...also her translation books have it as 'strøm' meaning stream ...

Though I suppose a stream is to a river as a twig is to branch, so maybe they're both correct ...
