Dröfn

"Foam-Fleck." A billow maiden, one of the nine daughters of the sea god Ægir and his wife Rán. She is sometimes mentioned instead of Bára. Her name is found in a stanza by the Icelandic skald Ormr Steinþórsson, quoted in Skáldskaparmál:

The hawk-like, heedful Lady

Has every virtue: Lofn

Of the Foam-Fleck's flame-gold, faithful

As a friend, all faults renounceth.
