Heimdall[edit]

I have read that Háma, maybe this one maybe not, is the OE/AS (language) name for the ON Heimdallr. 4.242.174.19 (talk) 09:32, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The roots are cognates, but they are not the same figure, nor the same name. The first element "heim" is the same only. 120.29.109.137 (talk) 06:34, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Move to Heime[edit]

I would like to move Hama to Heime, as this is the name by which he is most frequently attested. Ermenrich (talk) 00:30, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Aymon" is likely more frequent. But I would not like to change it to that. But if that is the rule?...

I actually prefer Heime as well. 120.29.109.137 (talk) 06:05, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Moving to Heime[edit]

@Berig:, I feel like I should finally bite the bullet on this and just move the page to Heime, as he is much better attested by this name and it more closely matches the Norse name Heimir as well. It looks like the redirect would need to be deleted first though - would you be willing to help (assuming you don't object to the move)?--Ermenrich (talk) 20:41, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done!--Berig (talk) 05:48, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I actually prefer the Old English forms since this is English WP, but I have no strong opinions about it.--Berig (talk) 05:50, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
