Reply to: loki by May-Linn Lønningen
All I wonder is: why is the name Loki so widespread in literature about Norse mythology, if it is all together wrong? Even Jacob Grimm writes about Loki, not Loke?
I don't doubt the fact that it should be Loke instead of Loki, I just wonder how this wrong spelling came about?
