Tiu: Old English name for the Sky-God, Norse Mythology
Woden: Old Norse meaning "fury."
The Roman's had the same god named, "Mercury."
Notice: When a German met a Roman, they both believed in the god who represented "fury." So, to them, they believed they had different words for the same exact god. Good paper topic or Xtranormal video.
Freya: Norse mythology; goddess of love and fertility
Known as "Aphrodite" to the Greeks and "Venus" to the Romans.
