Meaning & History

Means "malice striker". In Norse mythology this is the name of the dragon who lives in the pool Hvergelmir and gnaws at the roots of Yggdrasil. He lives in Nástönd, a part of Niflheimr ("the dark home") or Helheimr ("Hel's home") and chews on the corpses of those guilty of murder, adultery and oath-breaking (which the Norsemen considered the worst possible crimes).
