Þrymr

In Norse mythology, Þrymr (Thrymr, Thrym; "noise") was a jötunn. He is the namesake of the Eddic poem Þrymskviða, in which he stole Thor's hammer Mjǫlnir, and the same tale is told in Þrymlur. Another mention of Þrymr is in the þulur appended to the Prose Edda, probably deriving from Þrymskviða. Three figures named Þrymr, including a king and a jötunn, are mentioned in Hversu Noregr byggðist.
