Freya

Herkunft und Bedeutung von Freya

Freya descends from the Old Norse Freyja, 'lady', the name of the Norse goddess of love, beauty and fertility, one of the most revered figures in Viking mythology. It evokes strength, sensuality and grace all at once. It is very common in the Scandinavian countries and has become hugely successful in the United Kingdom, where it now ranks among the most chosen girls' names; its mythological, northern allure makes it instantly recognisable across Europe.
