Hrǫnn

Hrǫnn is a Norse Goddess of Waves and one of the Nine Daughters of Ægir and Rán.

Norse Mythology

Hrǫnn meaning "Wave" In Norse mythology, the Goddess Rán and the JötunnÆgir both personify the sea, and together they have nine daughters who personify waves. Each daughter's name reflects poetic terms for waves. The sisters are attested in the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier traditional sources; the Prose Edda, composed in the 13th century; and in the poetry of skalds. Scholars have theorized that these daughters may be the same figures as the nine mothers of the god Heimdallr. In Norse Mythology Heimdall is the child of the Nine Daughters of Ægir and Rán and the God Odin.
