About Fjörgynn

In Norse mythology, the feminine Fjörgyn (Old Norse "earth"[1]) is described as the mother of the god Thor, son of Odin, and the masculine Fjörgynn is described as the father of the goddess Frigg, wife of Odin. Both names appear in the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier traditional sources, and the Prose Edda, written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson. A number of theories surround the names, and they have been the subject of scholarly discourse.

Om Fjörgynn (Norsk)

Fjorgyn eller Fjorgvin (norrønt Fjörgyn, «jord»)

Fjorgyn er et hunkjønnsnavn, men det finnes også et hankjønnsnavn, Fjorgynn (eller Fjorgvin). Om disse er bror og søster (tilsvarende Frøy og Frøya), eller ektefeller, eller begge deler, er dog usikkert og har gitt store diskusjoner i forskningsverden. De opptrer uansett tidvis som mor til Frigg. En annen tolkning er at Fjorgyn også er et annet navn på Odin.
