I wanted to call my daughter Freja in honour of the nordic goddess of love, beauty and war so that - in a totally silly way - she'd be looked after by a kick-arse goddess :) BUT wanted to use the Icelandic form of the name; Freyja - the mother wouldn't have it though :(
Despite its trendiness in Britain, the name Freya was only given to 180 baby girls born in the US in 2012.
Considering Freya is the 19th most popular name in Britain, English should be listed as one of its usages.On a side note, I think it's nice although I dislike its similarity to the word "fray". I probably wouldn't like it as much if I weren't Norwegian. Free would be a cute nickname. [noted -ed]
