Hárr

Hárr

"High one." One of the many names for Odin. Another version of the name — Háva — is found in the eddic poem Hávamál, "Sayings of the High One." Hárr is also the name of one of the three interlocutors in Gylfaginning; he sits in the nethermost seat. The other two are called Jafnhárr and Þridi.

Another Hárr appears in the catalog of dwarfs in Völuspá, stanza 15.
