I am really sorry that the singing badger considers my changes to be of no value.
Norn->fate. OK, it is not a big deal. I called Urd "fate" because it is a common translation for "norn".
Iduna. It seems extremely unlikely that a Stockholm club named Ydun should be given as "Iduna" especially when Iduna is a form of the Norse goddessIdun.
Thule appears in the works ofProcopius as a name for Scandinavia. That it is exclusively mythical is POV.
Yrsa was the mother ofRolf Krake and the wife ofAdils in Norse mythology. The singing badger could have bothered to go beyond Schmadel when verifying this fact.
Ingeborg was the woman in a famous love story withHjalmar in Norse mythology. Again the singing badger could have bothered to go beyond Schmadel when verifying this.
