Note to stanza3. Anonymous Þulur, 10. Óðins nǫfn, 6 [Vol. 3, 746] [2] Siggautr: Lit. ‘battle-Gautr’ or ‘victory-Gautr’, a cpd not attested elsewhere. The name, which is not attested elsewhere, was originally omitted in A but added in the left margin in scribal hand. The first element Sig- is illegible in B. The restored form Siggautr is also supported by ‘sigautr’ in 744ˣ and the LaufE mss, and the initial <s> is required by alliteration (cf. OE Sigegēat; Falk 1924, 25). See also Gautr (st. 1/6) and other Óðinn-names with Sig- as the first element (e.g. Sigfǫðr, Sigtryggr and Sigþrór, sts 4/4, 8/1, 7 as well as the heiti contained in the present stanza). referencesFalk, Hjalmar. 1924.
