Re: Norse god names!
Though it's not the name of a god, there's also Mjolnir. Mjolnir was Thor's hammer and when a friend suggested it as a name after I tamed Skoll, I felt it kind of fitting.
From wikipedia: "... would be able to strike as firmly as he wanted, whatever his aim, and the hammer would never fail, and if he threw it at something, it would never miss and never fly so far from his hand that it would not find its way back, and when he wanted, it would be so small that it could be carried inside his tunic..."
It seemed like a good name for a hunter pet.

You simply must name a pet Audhumla. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audhumbla
