Meaning and history

The name means "beloved", from Proto-Germanic * Frijjō, derived from the root * frijōną meaning "to love". In Norse mythology she was the wife of Odin and the mother of Balder. Some scholars believe that she and the goddess Freya share a common origin (though their names are not linguistically related).
