Pronunciation is ɔːcɪ 2 is loki Proper noun @@ is Norse mythology en Loki Norse god is male Declension m Old Norse Etymology Now generally seen as deriving from non lok lock, equivalent to non lok -i, from non gem-pro *luką lock, from non ine-pro *lewg- to turn, bend, connecting his name to entanglement. Loki may have originated as an epithet or title ("Entangler"), similar to Freyr ("Lord") for Yngvi, as evidenced by the Jötunn Útgarða-Loki featuring the same element. Some have alternatively suggested Loki's original name was non *logi liar, deceiver (from non ine-pro *lewgʰ- to lie, tell a lie, cognate with ang loga liar, deceiver), as he is the god of mischief, or non logi fire, blaze, if he was viewed as being connected with fire.Heide, Eldar http://eldar-heide.net/Publikasjonar%20til%20heimesida/Loke-artikkel%20til%20nettsida.pdf Loki, the Vätte, and the Ash Lad: A Study Combining Old Scandinavian and Late Material Viking and Medieval Scandinavia 7 2011 63–106 (65–75, quoting p. 75) 10.1484/J.VMS.1.102616 https://web.archive.org/web/20260602154408/https://eldar-heide.net/Publikasjonar%20til%20heimesida/Loke-artikkel%20til%20nettsida.pdf 2 June 2026 In popular folk etymology, his name often assumed to be a variant of non logi flame, blaze (from non gem-pro *lugô flame, blaze; compare non leygr flame, blaze, from non gem-pro *laugiz flame, blaze, from non ine-pro *leuk- light; white; to shine), but this is not linguistically sound.
