Herteitr

Recent change added the meaning "Glad of War" to this. Although this may be better than the "Host glad" (which I don't see how fits the name), it is probably not quite right. In modern Icelandic her means army and teitur means gay (as in happy). What the actual meaning of the kenning is, however, I do not know ("Glad of army", "Gladdest of the soldiers", "life of the army party" ;-) ... ?).

Hopefully, someone that knows the kenning can inform us all --Swift 00:07, 19 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Óðins nöfn - Þul Óðins

Verifying the existence of Jörmunr as one of Odin's names, I finally discovered this anonymous Old Norse skaldic poem Óðins nöfn - Þul Óðins. It appears to be the most thorough recitation of Odin's names and the information should be integrated into this article.--Berig 07:44, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
