Name

The Old Norse name Angrboða has been translated as 'the one who brings grief',Шаблон:Sfn 'she-who-offers-sorrow',Шаблон:Sfn or 'harm-bidder'.Шаблон:Sfn The first element is related to the English word "anger", but means "sorrow" or "regret" in Old Norse, the later meaning is retained in Scandinavian languages. In Norwegian and Danish the word is rendered as "anger" while Icelandic and Faroese has "angur" and Swedish "ånger". The second element "boða" is cognate with the English word bode as in "this does not bode well".

According to some scholars, the name Angrboða is probably a late invention dating from no earlier than the 12th century, although the tradition of the three monsters born of Loki and a jötunn may be of greater age.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
