Håvar

Norwegian Bokmål Alternative forms nb Haavar alternative spelling nb Håvard, nb Haavard variants Etymology Of uncertain exact origin. Either a younger form of Old Norse non Hávarr, or a variant of nb Håvard, from Old Norse non Hávarðr. non Hávarr is traditionally analysed as a compound of non hár high, from Proto-Germanic gem-pro *hauhaz high, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European ine-pro *kewk- to elevate, and a name element related to non herr army, from Proto-Germanic gem-pro *harjaz army; warrior, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European ine-pro *ker- army. It may therefore be interpreted approximately as “high warrior”. Under the alternative analysis as a variant of nb Håvard, see that entry for the derivation from Old Norse non Hávarðr.
