[4] skálgelmir (m.) ‘hollow-clanger’: Or skalgelmir? Not attested elsewhere as a cpd. The first element of this cpd is most likely derived from skál f. ‘hollow, bowl’ (hence referring to the shape of a bow), while its second element is related to the strong verbs gala, gjalla ‘cry, make noise’ (see Note to Þul Jǫtna I 2/7; cf. gelmingr ‘clamourer’ and galmr ‘clanging one’ among the heiti for ‘sword’ in Þul Sverða 12/1, 2/5). As the second part of compounds, gelmir is frequently used in mythical names (cf. the giants’ names Aurgelmir, Þrúðgelmir and Bergelmir in Þul Jǫtna I 5/5, 2/7, 6/3; Hvergelmir in Grí 26/5, etc.). Alternatively, the first part of this heiti could have been derived from skáli m. ‘hall’ (skálgelmir ‘one that makes noise in the hall’, see SnE 1998, II, 389) or from skal n. ‘noise’ (skalgelmir ‘noise-shouter’?).
