[Opinions] Re: Freya
in reply to a message by Shiply
I don't mind goddesses but I do mind pronunciation issues.
Freya could be Frier, as in One who fries, or Friar, as in Robin Hood's friend Friar Tuck.
Freya could be Frayer, as in One who unravels fabrics.
In Afrikaans and probably Dutch, 'vryer' or 'vrijer' is a person intent upon amorous activities! Pronounced like the fabric vandal, with a definite R.
I wouldn't use Freya.
