[6] Rǫkkvi: Or Røkkvi. See also Þul Sækonunga heiti 4/1. Perhaps the name means ‘one who goes (sails, attacks) in the dusk’ (from røkkr m. ‘twilight’; so Björn Sigfússon 1934, 137). Finnur Jónsson (1934-5, 295) suggests that the word could be derived from the adj. rakkr ‘courageous’. The name is used in kennings for ‘sea’, ‘ship’ and ‘shield’ (LP: Rǫkkvi).
