[1] akka: A hap. leg. and an obscure word. According to Falk (1914b, 100), the heiti might be a term for an arrow with a bone-point (cf. MHG anke ‘joint’, OHG enka ‘hip, bone’; AEW: akka). Alternatively, the heiti could be derived from the Indo-European root *ak- ‘sharp’ (cf. ON egg ‘edge’; see AEW: akka).
