*Fraujaz or *Frauwaz (Old High German frô for earlier frôjo, frouwo, Old Saxon frao, froio, Gothic frauja, Old English frea, Old Norse freyr), feminine *Frawjon (OHG frouwa, Old Saxon frua, Old English frowe, Goth. *fraujo, Old Norse freyja) is a Common Germanic honorific meaning "lord", "lady", especially of deities. The epithet came to be taken as the proper name of two separate deities in Norse mythology, Freyr and Freyja. In both Old Norse and Old High German the female epithet became a female honorific "lady", in German Frau further weakened to the standard address "Mrs." and further to the normal word for "woman", replacing earlier wîp (English ) and qinô (English ) "woman". Just like Norse Freyja is usually interpreted as a hypostasis of *Frijjo (Frigg), Norse Freyr is associated with Ingwaz (Yngvi) based on the Ynglingasaga which names Yngvi-Freyr as the ancestor of the kings of Sweden, which as Common Germanic *Ingwia-fraujaz would have designated the "lord of the Ingvaeones. Both Freyr and Freyja are represented zoomorphically by the pig: Freyr has Gullinbursti ("golden bristles") while Freyjahas Hildisvíni has ("battle-pig"), and one of Freyja's many names is Syr, i.e. "sow".
