Ögri

Ögri is a very rare Old Norse name, directly derived from the Old Norse word 'ögr' meaning 'terror' or 'fear'. Names derived from words describing strong emotions or formidable concepts were not uncommon in Old Norse society, often intended to imbue the bearer with those qualities or to ward off evil. Its usage would have been primarily in the Viking Age and early medieval period in Scandinavia and areas influenced by Norse culture.

Due to its strong and somewhat negative connotation in modern languages, the name has not seen a revival and remains extremely rare, if used at all, in contemporary times. It is primarily encountered in historical texts, sagas, and academic studies of Old Norse language and naming conventions.
