Hrefna

Hrefna is a female given name of Old Norse origin. It derives from the Old Norse word hrafn, meaning "raven." The name is associated with wisdom, intelligence, and memory, as ravens were considered intelligent creatures in Norse mythology and often served as messengers for the gods, particularly Odin. Hrefna is related to other names derived from hrafn, such as Hrafnhildr. The name appears in Icelandic sagas and continues to be used in Iceland and other Scandinavian countries today. It is considered a relatively rare name.
