About Mjöll

With ties to Norse mythology and an evocative, wintery meaning, Mjöll is the Icelandic form of one of legendary children of King Snær, and is sometimes considered a snow goddess, owing to the meaning of her name. Loosely pronounced as MYUR'tch, we'd recommend listening to it said in Icelandic to understand the sounds.

The name has been notably borne by singer Mjöll Hólm, while the spelling Mjoll is used for a character in the video game, Skyrim. Mjella is also a Norwegian variation.

Pronounced MYUL.
