gunnr

Gunnr is a name that appears in Norse mythology. He is described as a son of the god Odin. There is not extensive information available about Gunnr in the surviving Eddic and Skaldic poetry. His parentage links him to the Æsir, the principal pantheon of Norse gods. The name Gunnr itself is related to the Old Norse word for "war" or "battle," suggesting a possible martial connection or role. However, the specific myths or sagas detailing Gunnr's actions or importance are largely absent from the preserved mythological corpus. He is mentioned in genealogical lists and poetic genealogies that trace the lineage of various gods and heroes. Unlike more prominent figures like Thor or Loki, Gunnr does not have distinct stories or a defined narrative arc within the mythological tradition. His presence primarily serves to establish familial relationships within the divine pantheon.
